User reviews
This is a very useful plugin and works very well. Just one thing I would like to be added here, and this is a feature to define the delimiter character of the generated CSV file. Nowadays, "CSV" still stands for "comma separated value" but the "comma" often is replaced with any other character, e.g. ";" or "|".
Per default, this is "," but for many users ";" would be a better choice here. I have changed my installation to use ";" (in file 'downloadcsv.js': -> csv.push(row.join(";")); ) and now Excel opens without any problem correctly.
If the delimiter character would be a choice, this would then be perfect.
But nevertheless, THANK YOU VERY MUCH fot this nice plugin.
