Hello,

I am currently looking at using the html pagination
feature in Birt2.0 There is a reference implementation
provided in webviewer 2.0, but no documentation on
how to use it, i would like to get information on how to
control the pagecount and current pages etc. Any step
by step instruction on how to carry out would be greatly
appreciated.

regards,
Rajesh

Others can correct me if I'm wrong, but pagination doesn't apply to HTML
output. E.g., if you resize the browser, the page layout expands or
contracts accordingly - so something on "page 2" can become part of "page
1".

Pagination works for PDF output since the pages don't change with the
window size.

HTH, Mark

The web viewer provided has this feature in Birt2.0. But there
has been asbsolutely no documentation or i am not able to locate one
on how to control for e.g. the totalpages, and the different pagenumbers
(nextpage,lastpage,firstpage etc). The minimum documentation available as
part of the functional spec talks about developers need to control the
next page, total pages etc. A sample will help us to implement this
solution better.

Rajesh

If by totalpages you mean to do "Page N of M", this was previously
answered that it is not supported in the 2.0 release.

Hi,
Your answer kind of surprised me because the last few days
when ever i searched for pagination and birt the below text kind of
was the defaulted on the search.

Including over 200 enhancements derived from community feedback, BIRT 2.0
f eatures a new and improved viewer based on AJAX, which supports HTML
pagination, CSV Output and Table of Contents functionality

regards,
Rajesh

Page numbers *are* supported, so you can do something like:

- <value-of>pageNumber</value-of> -

in the footer of your Master Page (note that you can only have *one*
element in the footer, so you must delete any that are already there
first).

BUT, you canNOT include the total pages in the footer, since BIRT 2.0.0
does not yet support a "lookahead" for total pages.
