I am getting a
ERROR: "SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'btoa'"
in Internet Explorer when trying to Export HTML Table to Excel using code:.
var tableToExcel = (function () {
var uri = 'data:application/vnd.ms-excel;base64,'
, template = '<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets><x:ExcelWorksheet><x:Name>{worksheet}</x:Name><x:WorksheetOptions><x:DisplayGridlines/></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet></x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml><![endif]--></head><body><table>{table}</table></body></html>'
, base64 = function (s) { return window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(s))) }
, format = function (s, c) { return s.replace(/{(w+)}/g, function (m, p) { return c[p]; }) }
return function (table, name, filename) {
$('#'+table+' .rowNumbers').remove();
if (!table.nodeType) table = document.getElementById(table)
var ctx = { worksheet: name || 'Worksheet', table: table.innerHTML }
document.getElementById("dlink").href = uri + base64(format(template, ctx));
document.getElementById("dlink").download = filename;
document.getElementById("dlink").click();
}
})()
What could possibly be a workaround for this quandary in IE for those still in IE < = 9?
