Not saved the file in chrome

[Мария Марковна]

HI!

The code to save html table in excel

table = document.getElementById('grid__staticWrapper')

var ctx = {worksheet: "excel" || 'Worksheet', table: table.innerHTML}

window.location.href = ('data:application/vnd.ms-excel,' +  encodeURIComponent(ctx.table));

Were conducted the following experiments
Everything works

ctx.table = ctx.table.substring(0,1000000)

Not working

ctx.table = ctx.table.substring(0,2000000)

The total length of more than 20 million characters

Сhrome Version 52.0.2743.82 m (64-bit)

What is the character limit?
This problem can be solved?

Note - this is not the place for such questions. This group discusses the Developer Tools feature only. Please, post this sort of things elsewhere.

A quick Google search turned out some Stack Overflow questions that eventually lead to this issue - crbug.com/44820 - which says that the limit is two megabytes (2 million, you meant, not 20 million).

Your other option is probably to create a Blob, append the string to it and then convert it to a URL using URL.createObjectURL. That is probably the better way anyway, rather than a data URL. Once the file has started downloading, you can use URL.revokeObjectURL to let the garbage collector clear the memory it occupies.
