Export to Excel in linux environment

I can convert my data to excel in my windows server. but using Linux- not working correctly either using IE of FF.
It doesn't get the application to open excel file.
Did i miss out something on linux server?
or this plug-in cant be use on linux

Hi,

Does Excel exist on Linux?

The plugin (and TBS) return the same result for all OS, and for all browsers. The changes of behaviors depends on the capabilities of the OS to support the feature (opening an Excel file with the application), on the behavior of the browser to preform the task (opening a downloaded file with an application).

If you're using TBSOOo to generate an ODS file, you can use

to convert to an Excel spreadsheet.
