CSV

Dear all,

At the moment, I need a syntax that changes the base name of the CSV files that are downloaded.

I need that: When CSV's are downloaded, instead of a standardized name for all files, tell me the name of the distributor in question.

Example:
Let's say I have a dispatcher where there are several records inside a table called "patients". The moment I download that information from this table, my current code creates a CSV file with table name 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on.

If my distributor is SG459300, I want the downloaded table to be named SG459300.

What I have tried:

</script>

<!-- Datatable -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="../assets/js/datatables.min.js"></script>

<script src="../assets/js/table2csv.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">


function export2CSV(tableID)
{

	var table = $("#"+tableID).DataTable();
	 
	    table.page.len( -1 ).draw();

	
	$("#"+tableID).table2csv();
	
}

	//Automatically instanciate a datatable
    $( ".datatable" ).each(function( index ) {

  	  var orderCol = 0;
  	  var orderOrd = 'asc';

    	if ($(this).attr('data-orderdtcol')) {
    		orderCol = $(this).data('orderdtcol');
        }
    	if ($(this).attr('data-orderdtord')) {
    		orderOrd = $(this).data('orderdtord');
        }

    	$(this).dataTable(
				{
    				lengthMenu: [
    				             [ 10, 25, 50, 100, -1 ],
    				             [ '10', '25', '50', '100' , 'All' ]
    				         ],
           		 responsive: true,
           		 "order": [[ orderCol, orderOrd ]],
				 "stateSave": true,
            "language": {
                "url": "../Translations/<?=($_SESSION['user'] instanceof User)?$_SESSION['user']->getLang():'en_US';?>/LC_MESSAGES/datatable.json"
            }
        } );
    });

</script>
