I'm using in an angular app and it's breaking silently as well. Any plans to fix this?

Download attribute only works with anchor tag, and not button.

Please let me know if you think otherwise, or need any other feature in the plugin.

Thanks.

Mine is in an anchor tag:

+ Export

still no luck. I ended up having to go with server side excel generation because of the lack of IE support with your library. You have a great library though. If IE ever gets with the times I'll definitely be using it. Thanks for the response.

Unfortunately, IE is not big in adapting to latest specifications, that's why URI feature is missing in the same.

Also, the plugin documentation already talks about the supported browsers,

Morever, if you need to use a Server Side plugin, please use the following,
