Export html table to Excel javascript function special characters changed

Question

I have the following function that exports an html to excel:

function generateexcel(tableid) {
  var table= document.getElementById(tableid);
  var html = ta         


        

Answer 1

I have the same issue, just replace encodeURIComponent for escape.

function generateexcel(tableid) {
 var table= document.getElementById(tableid);
 var html = table.outerHTML;
 window.open('data:application/vnd.ms-excel,' + escape(html));
}

It works for me...
