Worthy alternative to phpexcel?

Question

PHP

I thought that phpexcel is a remedy for all problems, but it was not there. I have a page with a table. Is there any way to send it to Excel so that you do not have to manually enter all the fields. but click on the button and everything that is in <table>went to excel? or am I too naive?
UPD
, among other things, the understanding came that it makes sense to simply save the page with the desired extension on the button.
tell me how to do it?
