How to export the html table contents (records) to an Excel file.

Hi,

I have webpage (.jsp) which lists out 4 to 5 records (having say 4 to 5 columns)
inside html table tag.  This page, has an "Export" button, at the bottom.  On
click of this button, I need to export the records (that the current page is
displaying) to an .xls (Excel format) file.

Shall be greatful if anyone can tip me on this.

Thanks,
S.Srikanth

  response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");


Assuming the end user has Excel installed and their browser
accepts "application/vnd.ms-excel", the data will be streamed
to the client and the content will be opened by Excel.

You could try the displaytag tag library on sourcefourge:
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net. It includes nice table export
functionality for excel, csv and xml.
