Hey folks, I saw a grid with buttons to export data from GroceryCrud API List (here).
Somebody could post any example how to do that.

see this for pdf

and for excel I create a one library bassed in this code


<?php
if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Ficheroexcel{

function crearFichero($datos,$nombre){
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel; name='excel'");
header("Content-Disposition: filename=$nombre.xls");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Expires: 0");
echo $datos;
}

}

and use the jquery code in the view,

<form action="<?php echo site_url('informes/generarExcel/anticipos');?>" method="post" target="_blank" id="FormularioExportacion">

		    <p>Exportar a Excel  <img src="<?php echo base_url().'images/excel.jpg';?>" class="botonExcel" /></p>

		    <input type="hidden" id="datos_a_enviar" name="datos_a_enviar" />

see this

and the controller function

function generarExcel($ruta){

	    $datos=$_POST['datos_a_enviar'];

	    $this->load->library('ficheroexcel');

	    $this->ficheroexcel->crearFichero($datos,$ruta);

    }
