</report>

The report itself works fine: the proper function is called when the button is clicked, the combobox is filled correctly. But the problem is that I see error messages when the report is shown, under the report itself:
The following items have errors:

ReportDesign (id = 1):
+ There are errors evaluating script "inputParameter":
ReferenceError: "inputParameter" is not defined. (<inline>#1) (Element ID:1)
+ There are errors evaluating script "measureTime":
ReferenceError: "measureTime" is not defined. (<inline>#1) (Element ID:1)
+ There are errors evaluating script "measureValue":
ReferenceError: "measureValue" is not defined. (<inline>#1) (Element ID:1)

There is no element with id="1" in the report source, so I am not clear what the errors refer to. I've added default values for parameters, as seen above, but this didn't help. How can I avoid those error messages?

My own controls are used in the report, but I've checked that they don't throw exceptions while generating HTML.

I believe this is complaining because of bookmark expressions.
For example:
<extended-item extensionName="DateTimePicker" name="measureTime"
id="42">
<property name="label">Time</property>
<expression name="bookmark">measureTime</expression>
</extended-item>

measureTime does not evaluate.
