Export is not working in Mac

We integrated JQuery Export functionality . I have couple of problems,

1. In Mac Os, The files are saved with out extension. So the files could not be opened. when Our users edit the filename and add the proper extension, it opens perfectly. So Only the filename is the issue.

2. While exporting excel, It saves a file with .csv extension instead of .xls

Please help me to resolve this issue.

    In Fact Its not working Data table examples itself,

    http://datatables.net/extras/tabletools/

    Here if you click 'Excel' button, the file downloaded as '.csv'

    In Mac OS, extension is not coming at all

    The extension is there, just hidden.

    Regarding the fact that it is a CSV file, please see this post, and the several others like in in the forum already available: http://www.datatables.net/forums/discussion/4043/export-to-excel-wrong-extention-.csv
