Hello everybody,
This is my first post so thank you in advance for any help that you are able to provide me.
My problem is simple, I need to export my data to .csv format in IE9. The following code works for IE10+ but not IE9. I've spent a day or two looking for a solution as my boss at work requires DataTables to work on IE9 as some of our clients still use that version of the browser.
I've read that you can save to .csv in IE9 but for some reason, I am unable to get the required functionality to work. I'm using Browserstack to test and I'm not getting any errors when I debug in developer tools. I have checked that adobe player is installed as well.
Thanks again.
Daniel
