These 2 url parameter are obsolete. Toolbar always shows up. Viewer UI
dose not use any html frameset any more. All UI are rendered in one single
html page. Div is used to control the layout.

then which url should i use?

also when i used the run servlet i saw no tool bar and frameset (which
very comfortable if i wanna print it all out) the run servlet was the only
one that accepted the ptf format. i also just noticed another thing, i
convert to pdf, my hebrew string all turn out reverse!!!

It is up to your.

Run url uses engine's runAndRender task to render the report in both
pdf/html format from report design file. No html pagination is supported.
It does not trigger the ajax viewer and simply renders the report itself.

Frameset url uses engine's render task in most cases. It can only render
report in html format from report document page by page. It invokes the
web viewer.

but you said BOTH url are obselete, right? so is there a new url i should
use?

the frameset view doesn't allow you to print from the browser unless there
is a trick i don't know about to avoid this, that's why i wanted the run
view (becouse after all a report is for printing right?)

seems to me that the frameset is just for viewing (and export to excel if
i ever get this to work) while the run, is for printing and pdf (if i ever
get it's hebrew not to be reversed, any chance for that?)

I am saying those 2 url parameters are obsolete. If you want to print
report in html format, you should use run?...

We probably need to provide certain thing in the ajax based viewer to
allow printing in html format.

if i include page paramters in the reprot itself (for example open a new
page for each 10 records print,print columns headings for each new page,
and display the page number, would that appear in the run servlet?

see i wanna use http://www.primopdf.com/ so if the client desices to print
it in pdf, he would be able to send directly to installed pdf printer.
that way i can solve the reverse hebrew problem in your pdf, until you
slove it on your end (if you can solve it with bidi etc ;) ).

i would say that simplest solution is to have a link in the frameset
viewer, that will a open a new window, pour into it the contents of run
servlet and display the print dialog, altough, it does make you run the
report again, it sperates the report content from control navigation.
