Hi
I am currently using BIRT 2_2_0 ReportEngine API in my web-app to generate
chart reports.
When i generate chart reports and send it by mail, the chart image in the
generated report has my server url.( e.g
http://server:host/webapp/image-dir/image.jpg).
So obviously, if my server is down, chart images are not shown in the
generated report.
[I have been using HTMLRenderOptions.setBaseImageURL and setImageDirectory
methods for images to be rendered in HTML ]
Just wanted to know if there are any other way to embed the chart
image[using RE api] in the generated report so the images would appear
even if the server is down.
Need this to send the generated report to users by email and it doesnt
make much sense to tell them that the image wud appear only if the server
is up!
Any help would be highly Appreciated.

Well Firefox provides another alternative. You can embed the image in
the src attribute: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data:_URI_scheme
