Mozilla allignment problem with reports

Hello,

I have generated reports in my web application using SQL Server Reporting services. Its working and displaying fine when I open the application in Internet Explorer. But with Firefox Mozilla, the display of report contents is not working proper. Please advise.

Thanks in advance,

Ambili.

Hi,

In Reporting Services, you use a Web browser to view reports and run Report Manager. Not all report functionality is supported by all browsers. The following table describes report functionality restrictions for the supported browsers.

Browser typeDescriptionMicrosoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or 7.0 for Windows, with all service packs applied and scripting enabled.Internet Explorer is recommended if you want to use all the available report functionality. Although you can use other browsers to view a report, Internet Explorer for Windows is the only browser that is guaranteed to support the complete set of features for working with reports.Netscape 7.2, Mozilla 1.7, Firefox 1.0.3, Safari 1.3, and Safari 2.0The following features are not supported in third-party browsers:· Document map· Searching within the report· Zoom· Fixed table headersThe following additional features are not available when viewing reports in Safari:· The Calendar control that is used to select dates on a parameterized report that runs on a report server has been disabled for Safari. Users must type the dates that they want to use.· Image source files that are retrieved from remote computers do not display correctly in Safari.· The client-side print control used for printing HTML reports.

So please make sure if your explorer type match the needs to run reporting service.

Hello,

Thanks for the prompt response.
As you have specified, I could see that Searching within thereport is not possible with Mozilla, which is possible in IE.
But my major issue is that the data inside the report is notdisplaying properly ( i mean, the formatting of the report contents). In IE, data inside the report is displaying properly. But in Mozilla, only first character of each column is displayed in each row. Any help on this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ambili.

If the output is mushed height-wise, add this to the ReportServices.css file:

* Fix report IFRAME height for Firefox */
.DocMapAndReportFrame
{
min-height: 860px;
}

For output mushed width-wise, add an empty textbox the width of the expected output.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for the valuable information.It helped me to solve the problem in case of height-wise alignment in mozilla and I am working with the case of width-wise alignment issue using the idea which you have specified.

Thanks again.

Hi Corwin:

Thank you for the code help in the ReportServices.css file. It worked for me using:

/* Fix report IFRAME height for Firefox */
.DocMapAndReportFrame
{
min-height: 860px;
}

I just had to put the forward slash ( / ) in front of * Fix report IFRAME height for Firefox */
