pdf formatting of an expandable report section? [message #825303] Tue, 20 March 2012 13:51 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I have coded some expandable/collapsible sections of my report.
The element that is expanded or collapsed has a custom style associated with it and a script of the form
'<script>document.getElementById("' + blockId + '").style.display = "' + c2 + '"</script>'
is used to toggle the element's visibility.

This works great in html but when I render the document in pdf mode none of the collapsible sections show up even though c2 is set to "block".

What I'd like to do is make sure all sections are expanded when rendering in pdf mode; how can I do that?

Look at the onRender code for the table rows in the attached example.

That is a better way to do it and it let's me get rid of the custom style setting.
