      Description

      Problem: The export feature downloads a file, but never provides the export URL that I need to add into my scripts.

      Replicate:

      1. Go to Moodle Demo (http://school.demo.moodle.net/my/) log in as manager.

      2. Go to Site Administration -> Grades -> General settings (http://school.demo.moodle.net/admin/settings.php?section=gradessettings) and enable publishing.

      3. Go to a class and set up a key for grade publishing (http://school.demo.moodle.net/grade/export/keymanager.php?id=62)

      4. Go to Export (http://school.demo.moodle.net/grade/export/xls/index.php?id=62), select the key you just made under "Grade Publishing" and then click the "Download" button.

      5. File downloads, no URL provided.

      I've tested this in Safari 8.0.2 and Firefox 34.0.5 on OS X Yosemite.
