BIRT : Styles overlapping in HTML Page [message #934137]

Fri, 05 October 2012 13:43

Eclipse User

I am an in-depth lover and user of BIRT.

but I am facing an issue while rendering the Reports in my JSP.

All the CSS styles and formatting (for example : font-color Red) I applied in my BIRT report design are displayed correctly jsp. But when I close this page and open another one which has different formatting properties (for example font-color Green) the style properties of the previous jsp is being applied to the newly opened one. i.e. Latest jsp displays some elements in Red color and some in Green color. Sad

. And only thing which is common for these two jsps is that , both of them have the same parent jsp.

I think this is happening because the BIRT itself is generating some in line styles (something like style_4, style_5, style_6 etc.) which are applied while rendering html data.

This issue does not happen when I render the report in PDF.

What could be the cause of this ?
How can I resolve this issue sothat I can render reports in a way that styles are not getting overlapped.

Please help....

thanks,
BIRT Bird

Are you using the API, tag libraries or the Viewer?
Take a look at the namespace option when using the API:
http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/project/notable3.7.php#jump_8

Are you applying individual properties in the BIRT report or are you using BIRT styles?

thanks for the fast response.

I am using API.

Yes I tried using namespace options:

options.setOutputFormat("HTML");
options.setEnableInlineStyle(false);

Also I tried setting as individual properties, BIRT style and external CSS files.

Nothing seems to be working. Sad

thanks,

Did you try the namespace?
HTMLRenderOption options = new HTMLRenderOption();
options.setOutputFileName("output/resample/renderoptions.html");
options.setOutputFormat("HTML");
options.setHTMLIDNamespace("mytest")

No, I hadn't tried that way.

So I tried just like you said now:

htmlOptions.setOutputFileName("output/resample/renderoptions.html");
htmlOptions.setOutputFormat("html");
htmlOptions.setHTMLIDNamespace("mytest");

Then it is not at all giving any HTML data.
What is meant by "output/resample/renderoptions.html" ?
Do I have to change something in this as per my context?

thanks,

No that was the example output. Do not use that. Just add
htmlOptions.setHTMLIDNamespace("mytest"); to your existing options list. Note that your map is probably not named htmlOptions

I tried as you said by just giving htmlOptions.setHTMLIDNamespace("mytest");

Still no luck. Sad

It still conflicts with the styles of the previously opened jsp.

thanks,

Can you open a bugzilla entry for this?

Not really sure. To move it along you may want to add code that can be easily executed to show the issue. BTW does this issue happen with only a couple of the report items or all of them. The items that have the issue, are you setting properties on or are you applying a style?

Ok. This happens with all reports for which I have applied some formatting with Color, Font and Border.
Also it happens in both cases (applying a named CSS style or applying individual properties.)

thanks,

Any chance you can upload some code to reproduce?
