Saving an HTML report for later web viewing [message #262903]

I have a web page that is currently using the birt-viewer application to
show an HTML report. Of course this dynamically recreates the report each
time the web page is accessed.

How do I run the report one, save as an HTML page, and then load into a
web page?

You would read your URL as follows:

URL url = new URL("http://localhost/viewer/run?__report=...");
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
InputStream in = new DataInputStream(url.getInputStream());
....

What you are doing is effectively saving the source of the generated
report?

I think that does not work. The problem is that the viewer generates
DHTML with DIVs for the animated loading bar thing and dynamically
displays the report in another DIV and so on.

All I want is straight HTML code.

Instead of "run" you can use "preview"
http://localhost/viewer/prevuew?__report=...
