How would we handle strings that contain commas? I tried using double quotes as text qualifiers but it doesn't seem to work.

@mmssaann That's the beauty of it, you don't use javascript. You just set the href of your anchor tag to the action. <a href="ControllerName/ActionName">Download CSV</a>

I have set the href for anchor tag. It is working fine. However the I can still see the entire page is posted back. is there a way to restrict the postback?

@mmssaann You should ask a new question with details about your particular setup.

I use your way to create download CSV, everything seems ok, I debug, it goes to the controller. But the browser doesn't show any sign of download file? Do you think what's happen, I need to change Web.config or something?
