You can't do that with Javascript alone. You'll need some kind of server-side processing that can create Excel formatted files. Just simply exporting a file with Content-Type for Excel is not going to give you a proper Excel file.
If you're using PHP, look into PEAR's Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer package. http://pear.php.net/package/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer/ Where does the data from the HTML table come from? If it's from a backend database, you can skip the Javascript and just use the database and PHP (or whatever server-side scripting). If it's some static HTML table, you'll use Javascript to parse the table to extract the data, and send that back to the server.
