How to repeat a row on each new page ? [message #740172]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if there is a way to do that :

PAGE 1

HEADER
Title 1
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
Title 2
Item 1
Item 2
FOOTER

Page 2
HEADER
Title 2 (Next)
Item 3
Item 4
Title 3
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
FOOTER

Right now, I can't add Title 2 on page 2. I'm using BIRT 2.6.2.

Thx in advance,
GuiF007

Could you use a page var and script and put it in the page header. See
atttached.

The header and footer I was talking about were those of a table. Does it these one you were talking about ? Anyway, I will try this solution, I let you know.

No, I do not have an example of using it in a group header.

Anyway, I will try to add one row in my table with that title if it's not possible to insert it in the group header.

I reach to display something each beginning of page (Except the first and second page page), but not the title, I received just null each time...

My structure is this one :
- On table to display title (called TABLE1)
- On each row of this table, I have one table to display items (called TABLE2)

I manage to display something really nice in TABLE2 header group.

<data id="1512">
                                                        <list-property name="boundDataColumns">
                                                            <structure>
                                                                <property name="name">cont</property>
                                                                <text-property name="displayName">cont</text-property>
                                                                <expression name="expression" type="javascript">vars["cont"]</expression>
                                                                <property name="dataType">string</property>
                                                            </structure>
                                                        </list-property>
                                                        <property name="resultSetColumn">cont</property>
                                                    </data>

On report tag, I have :

<method name="onPageStart"><![CDATA[reportContext.setPageVariable("cont","Last Page Ended with "+ reportContext.getGlobalVariable("lst"));]]></method>

On pageBreak table that display items under title (TABLE2), I have :

<method name="onPageBreak"><![CDATA[reportContext.setGlobalVariable("lst", row["title"]);]]></method>

The problem I have it's I received null for lst global variable.

OK... Why looking for something really tough as it's really easy...

In header TABLE2 (see above), I simply took the title from the dataset TABLE1... Pffff....
