    Could you provide a link to a test case in future, as requested in the forum rules please. I've put this one together for now to demonstrate the issue: http://live.datatables.net/facekusa/1/edit .

    What is happening is that the export will strip the HTML tags leaving only the text. It would probably remove the text content of the script tag, I don't see why we would ever want to do that. I've filed a bug and it will be in the next release of Buttons. I'll post back here when the commit is made.

    For now you would need to use a custom formatter to strip the text as you require.
