To convert HTML table data into excel, we need to use the SheetJS library. Using SheetJs we can easily convert our table data into an Xls file. We can download the js file from Github or directly use the CDN hosted file. We are done with HTML markup and import Sheetjs library.
Here's a function for doing this in Firefox with JavaScript, assuming the user has Excel installed on their machine:
var tableToExcel = (function() { var uri = 'data:application/vnd.ms-excel;base64,' , template = '<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets><x:ExcelWorksheet><x:Name>{worksheet}</x:Name><x:WorksheetOptions><x:DisplayGridlines/></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet></x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml><![endif]--></head><body><table>{table}</table></body></html>' , base64 = function(s) { return window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(s))) } , format = function(s, c) { return s.replace(/{(\w+)}/g, function(m, p) { return c[p]; }) } return function(table, name) { if (!table.nodeType) table = document.getElementById(table) var ctx = {worksheet: name || 'Worksheet', table: table.innerHTML} window.location.href = uri + base64(format(template, ctx)) } })() jsFiddle live example:

You can dynamically generate the Excel file in SpreadsheetDataXML format which allows you to custom the table, cell styles and format in HTML syntax.
To make this work in IE you'll need to use Blob object and then call msSaveBlob method. For FF and Chrome, you can just change the data of href to data:application/vnd.ms-excel
function fnExcelReport() { var tab_text = '<html xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel">'; tab_text = tab_text + '<head><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets><x:ExcelWorksheet>'; tab_text = tab_text + '<x:Name>Test Sheet</x:Name>'; tab_text = tab_text + '<x:WorksheetOptions><x:Panes></x:Panes></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet>'; tab_text = tab_text + '</x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml></head><body>'; tab_text = tab_text + "<table border='1px'>"; tab_text = tab_text + $('#myTable').html(); tab_text = tab_text + '</table></body></html>'; var data_type = 'data:application/vnd.ms-excel'; var ua = window.navigator.userAgent; var msie = ua.indexOf("MSIE "); if (msie > 0 || !!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident.*rv\:11\./)) { if (window.navigator.msSaveBlob) { var blob = new Blob([tab_text], { type: "application/csv;charset=utf-8;" }); navigator.msSaveBlob(blob, 'Test file.xls'); } } else { $('#test').attr('href', data_type + ', ' + encodeURIComponent(tab_text)); $('#test').attr('download', 'Test file.xls'); } } Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/h42y4ke2/21/ YT tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx_yGY6NHkc
