                                <td align= center style='border:#94D5FC solid 1px;padding:5px;'>&lt;?=$row->srate?&gt;</td>
                                <td align= center style='border:#94D5FC solid 1px;padding:5px;'>&lt;?=$row->trate?&gt;</td>
                                <td align= center style='border:#94D5FC solid 1px;padding:5px;'>$&lt;?=$row->subtotal?&gt;</td>
                             </tr>
                             &lt;?php
                            }
                            }
                           else {
                                 echo "No Results Found !";
                                }
                            ?&gt;
                        </table>
                        <div>Generate Excel Report<a href="&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;admin.php?report/generateexcel/&lt;?php echo $result; ?&gt;"><img src="&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;system/application/admin/images/excel_icon.gif" border="0" width="20px" height="20px"/></a></div>

Code:
function generateexcel($array)
                {
                $this->load->plugin('to_excel');
               // $query = $this->db->get('order_productinfo');
                $query = $array;
               // print_r($array);
                to_exceltoarray($query, 'myfile');
                }

Code:
function to_exceltoarray($array, $filename='out') {
    header('Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel');
    header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.$filename.'.xls');

    foreach($array[0] as $key=>$val)
        echo '<th>'.$key.'</th>';
    echo '</tr>';

    foreach($array as $key=>$val)
        _writeRow($val);

    echo '</table>';
}
