[jeonghwan-kim]

Thank you for this code (ng-csv). I used it in my project.

However, in Safari, csv file is not download. It is printed in Safari browser's new tab.
Aslo in Chrome browser filename attr is not working.

(Firefox is ok)

Hi,
Thanks for the report, Apparently Google pushed a bug in the latest version
of Chrome.
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=376197

I hope they will solve this soon enough, I'll check up on this in the next
couple of days and if I won't see any progress I will try to find a
workaround.

The Chromium team merged the issue into this one https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=373182

It should be fixed in a week or two. let's cross our fingers.

According to issue above, they solved it today, so we should expect a fix soon.

I'm using chrome Version 35.0.1916.153 latest. When I click on export, it always choose "download.csv" as the filename even if I have the filename="export.csv" attribute set.

Also, I have the same issue as mentioned above where safari opens the CSV in a new tab.

I am facing the same issue with Chrome and Safari. Do we have any work around at this moment?

Hi,

I don't have a good solution for Safari at the moment, as currently they
ignore the html5 download attribute. We can try to find a good flash
polyfill that will allow us to bypass that, Downloadify seems like a good
option. If any of you have the time for it, I'll be more than happy to
accept a pull request :)

As I mentioned above, The chrome team already solved the issue and the next
version is just around the corner, If you use Chrome beta or Canary you can
already see the it's solved. I hope it's a matter of days.

hi, for a rapid solution of chrome problem, you can modify ng-csv.js else in line 211 for that

    else {
        var blob = new Blob([scope.csv],{ 
              type: 'text/csv' 
            });
        var csvUrl = URL.createObjectURL(blob);

        var downloadLink = angular.element('<a></a>');
        downloadLink.attr('href',csvUrl);
        downloadLink.attr('download',scope.getFilename());

        $document.find('body').append(downloadLink);
        $timeout(function() {
          downloadLink[0].click();
          downloadLink.remove();
        }, null);
      }

UPDATE: The latest version of chrome works as expected
