TableTools - Filename export

fedeDBL

Is possible to set the file name of the exported .xls?

There is a parameter to the initialization of TableTools called sTitle, this will be used as the title of the .xls.

Allan,
How should this be implemented? I have tried a variety of ways, but nothing seems to work.

I currently have two tables on the page that each utilize TableTools, but I need to be able to export the results of each with specific names.

Thanks,

Mike

TableTools will use the page title, or TableToolsInit.sTitle if it is set. So simply putting in TableToolsInit.sTitle = "whatever" will do it.

Hello all,

i m not able to get where exactly to put this line TableToolsInit.sTitle = "whatever" to change the default filename.

You don't :-) This thread is from more than a year ago and refers to TableTools 1. With TableTools 2 now available sTitle is a button configuration option: http://datatables.net/extras/tabletools/button_options#sTitle (there is a code example in the documentation there).
