How can I enable client-side JavaScript in Preview/Web Viewer? After adding a single text with

<script>alert(new Date());</script>

it only appears in "View as HTML". Obviously it can be done by modifying the viewer and calling setJavascriptEnabled(true). But is it possible without doing this?

Set the preferences to use an external browser.

window->preferences->Report Design->Preview
check box Always use external browsers
