Why the html content of the same rpt from defferent engines are not same. [message #722315]

Dear friends,

After we upgraded birt engine from 2.3.1 to 2.6.1. Some javascript functions work not as expectation because the html content generated by the new engine changes.

The report is simple containing two fields which are ShipCountry and SalesAmount. The part of the report defination is:

<header>
<row id="9">
<cell id="10">
<label id="11">
<property name="fontWeight">bold</property>
<property name="textAlign">left</property>
<text-property name="text">ShipCountry</text-property>
</label>
</cell>
<cell id="12">
<label id="13">
<property name="fontWeight">bold</property>
<property name="marginTop">0pt</property>
<property name="paddingTop">1pt</property>
<property name="textAlign">left</property>
<text-property name="text">SalesAmount</text-property>
</label>
</cell>
</row>
</header>
<detail>
<row id="14">
<cell id="15">
<data id="16">
<expression name="bookmark">'ShipCountry'</expression>
<property name="resultSetColumn">ShipCountry</property>
</data>
</cell>
<cell id="17">
<data id="18">
<structure name="numberFormat">
<property name="category">Currency</property>
<property name="pattern">$###0.00;$(###0.00)</property>
</structure>
<property name="resultSetColumn">SalesAmount</property>
</data>
</cell>
</row>
</detail>
Below is the part of rows from the new engine(2.6.1)
Only the DIV tag in the first row has the id property whose value is "ShipCountry".
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td><div id="ShipCountry">Argentina</div></td>
<td><div>$8119.10</div></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td><div>Austria</div></td>
<td><div>$139488.03</div></td>
</tr>
...more rows
Below is the part of rows from the old engine(2.3.1)
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td><div id="ShipCountry">Argentina</div></td>
<td><div>$8119.10</div></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td><div id="ShipCountry">Austria</div></td>
<td><div>$139488.03</div></td>
</tr>
...more rows

I think the output from the new engine is strange. why only the first row has the id attribute? Is this an engine bug? Is there anything wrong with the report itself? If I want to generate the id attribute for each ShipCountry column in each row, is there some guide on that?

Thanks,
Ricky

This does appear to be a change to prevent two items with the same id.
Can you put in an expression for the bookmark like:

"ShipCountry"+ row.__rownum
