HTML form-style reports with client side Javascript? [message #201394] Thu, 16 November 2006 21:25 Go to next message

I am trying to create an HTML form-style report.
I noticed that I can drop in dynamic-text components and transform it into a
form element by specifying its value as:

"<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"cbX\" onclick=\"myfunc();\">"

This works quite well.

Where can I define my custom client-side Javascript block in the report
design to be generated in the HTML report output so that various form
elements may interact with each other while the report is being viewed in a
browser? e.g. in the example above, where do I define the Javascript
function myfunc( ) ?

Please let me know.

Thanks.

You should be able to use the <script> tag in the dynamic text control and
it will be included in the output.

Here's my attached rptdesign file for your reference.

When I view the HTML page source that was rendered for the report, the
<script> tag for the dynamic text control was removed.

<div style=" text-align:left;"></div>

Any suggestions on what might be wrong here?

I'm using...

Eclipse 3.2.1
Birt 2.2M1
JDK 1.5_07
IE 6
WinXP Pro

Thanks.

Did you put in the
&lt or did you put < around your form and script tags?

I logged a similar bug last week, but in 2.1.1 the script tag works.

You can verify this by opening the attached design (sent in the previous
posting) and editing the dynamic text control.

FYI ... I'm testing with 2.2M1
