The easy way to accomplish this is to simply send the HTML table and set the
content type to "application/vnd.ms-excel". 
You could do this with something like this:
  response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
 
response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment;filename=MyFileName.xls");
See: http://www.devtrain.de/artikel_912.aspx (German)

The more complex way is to use Apache POI (http://poi.apache.org/) - here
you have to build the Excel table via POI API and you cannot use the
Tapestry table at all (maybe you can write a special render logic for the
Tapestry table and use it anyway).

Cheers,
Chris
