Hi Team,
I am able to export iggrid to excel in both IE and chrome. But I want a save dialog box so that clients can provide the path to which excel should be downloaded, below is the code that am using
$.ig.GridExcelExporter.exportGrid($(me.gridName), { fileName: me.fileName, worksheetName: me.workSheetName, gridStyling: "applied", gridFeatureOptions: { sorting: "applied" } }
);
Hello Rajesh,
After investigating and doing some research of GridExcelExporter with a dialog box for specific path, I found that GridExcelExporter is a browser based control. It behave little different with the different browser.
If you run the below sample on chrome you will see the downloaded file will save in the download folder but when you run the sample on IE it will give you the option of ‘open’, ‘save’ and ‘save as’ ,and through the save as option you can still save the file to the specific path.
