Tab separated values

The copyFlash and csvFlash buttons have the option to specify the character (or more generally a full string) that separates the values between fields. By default this is a tab character for the copy button, but the Comma Separated Values button uses a comma.

File name

By default the name of the file created by the excelFlash, csvFlash and pdfFlash button types will automatically be taken from the document's title element. It is also possible to set the file name to a specific value using the filename option of these three button types.

Hidden initialization

When Flash buttons are created the Flash movie clip inside of them (which provides the export action) is automatically sized to fit the button. However, if the table is initialised while hidden the buttons will have zero height and width. As a result, when the table is made visible the Flash movies must be resized to fit the buttons. This is done using the buttons.resize() method (note that this method is only available when the Flash export buttons plug-in for Buttons is installed).
