Do you get the error if you don't set the Toast alert?

Laravel Excel Export Warning
Hi All,
I have started to use Laravel Excel in my web app and it all works fine. I get the excel except following warning in my browser console:
Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet: "http://fpone.homestead/jobsExport".
I've read in someplace that we can ignore this warning but the problem is my toast alert is not triggering due to this matter,
Following is my controller:
public function jobsExport()
{
Alert::toast('Jobs Exported into Excel', 'info');
return Excel::download(new JobsExport, 'Jobs-' . Carbon::now() . '.xlsx', \Maatwebsite\Excel\Excel::XLSX);
}
Can anyone give me some help to figure out a solution?

If you use an a tag, try adding the html download. Might not fix the issue with toast, but might fix the error
<a href="" download >Download </a>

I am using a href tag:
My blade file
<a href="{{route('jobsExport')}}" class="btn btn-secondary">
Export Excel
</a>
Level 1
Yes. I've tried that too. Still getting the error.

Like this
<a href="{{route('jobsExport')}}" class="btn btn-secondary" download>
Export Excel
</a>

@sinnbeck ...
My bad. Extremely sorry. I haven't read that carefully.
Thank you very much. That solved the issue. However, the toast is not firing up still.

No worries.
My guess is that it only works if you actually change page, which does not happen with a file download. You might be able to do some sort of streamed download of the file, but I am unsure how that works with laravel excel

Actually that makes lot of sense. I will keep on looking. Thank you very much for your assistance.
