I am using the javascript code for export html table to .xls file.Its work in crome and when data is not large.But when data is large then it shows me error like

enter image description here

The code which i have used for export the table as .xls file is as below:

function exportDiv() {
    //working on crome perfectly       
        var dt = new Date();
        var day = dt.getDate();
        var month = dt.getMonth() + 1;
        var year = dt.getFullYear();
        var hour = dt.getHours();
        var mins = dt.getMinutes();
        var postfix = day + "." + month + "." + year + "_" + hour + "." + mins;
        var a = document.createElement('a');
        var data_type = 'data:application/vnd.ms-excel';
        var table_div = document.getElementById('tbl-1');
        var table_html = table_div.outerHTML.replace(/ /g, '%20');
        a.href = data_type + ', ' + table_html;
        a.download = 'exported_table_' + postfix + '.xls';
        a.click();
        e.preventDefault();

}

I have also sufficient 4 gb ram so i think its not memory limit problem.

 var table_html=encodeURIComponent(table_div.outerHTML);

Most likely you've hit the 2 MB URL limit in Chrome. You can read about it here - issue link. I suggest you try your app in Firefox, if it works, then that is the issue.
