How to reproduce:
1. Do a search in CDS, e.g.
<http://cdsweb.cern.ch/search?cc=Books+%26+Proceedings&ot=020&ot=970&ln=en&p=020%3A'1->z'&f=&action_search=Search&c=Books+%26+Proceedings&c=&sf=&so=d&rm=&rg=10&sc=0&of=hx>.
2. Set "Output format" to "Excel"
3. Click "Search"
4. Save result.xls to disk
The resulting file is not an Excel file, and should therefore not have the
extension .xls. It is also not an HTML file, first because it's missing the
<html>, <head>, <title>, and <body> tags, and second because it's not valid
according to the W3C validator <http://validator.w3.org/>, even after adding
those tags.
