How to use it:

1. Add the JavaScript jTableToCSV.js after jQuery JavaScript library.

<!-- jQuery -->
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js" 
        integrity="sha384-nvAa0+6Qg9clwYCGGPpDQLVpLNn0fRaROjHqs13t4Ggj3Ez50XnGQqc/r8MhnRDZ" 
        crossorigin="anonymous">
</script>
<!-- CSV Export -->
<script src="jTableToCSV.js"></script>

2. Call the function to generate an 'Export' button next to your html table. That's it.

(function($){
  $('table').elementToCSV();
})(jQuery);

3. Customize the table to CSV converter with the following options.

$('table').elementToCSV({
  
  // set it to false once dev is done
  debug: true,

  // css classes prefix
  prefix: 'ttcsv_',

  // allow users to insert their own element
  generateExportButton: true,

  // default export trigger
  exportButton: '<button type="button"></button>',

  // default Export Text
  exportButtonText: 'Export',

  // default export icon

});

4. Apply your own styles to the Export/Download button.

.ttcsv_triggers--wrapper button, .ttcsv_triggers--wrapper a {
  display: block;
  width: auto;
  border: none;
  background: #ededed;
  padding: 5px 10px;
}

.ttcsv_triggers--wrapper button svg, .ttcsv_triggers--wrapper a svg {
  margin-right: 6px;
  max-height: 20px;
  vertical-align: top;
}
