Hello,
Your Datatables plugin is very good, I've been using it for a while now and It is very usable. But I'm a little stuck in a place, I would be very helpful if you can help a little.

I want to export data by excel but you can see this screenshot >> https://www.screencast.com/t/d5UuVDpy6aGm there are some extra data added form datatable header filter.

    It's because it's also including the values from the input elements. This example shows how you can modify the header text - in there you would need to extract the text before the <select> element, something like

     return $($('table').DataTable().column(index).header()).html().split('<')[0]
