Note that you check the "isStyledText" attribute of the textfield when using this kind of text. hth C-Box By: Sony George - sony3002 RE: how to add space before string 2005-07-01 22:54 hello i want to put a space before and after of my fields so i created a parameter a <parameter name="space_1" class="java.lang.String" isForPrompting="false"> <defaultValueExpression><![CDATA[" "]]></defaultValueExpression> </parameter> and made my textfield styled text -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <textField isBlankWhenNull="true"> <reportElement positionType="Float" x="0" y="0" width="92" height="20"/> <box topBorder="None" leftBorder="1Point" bottomBorder="1Point" rightBorder="None"/> <textElement verticalAlignment="Middle" isStyledText="true"> <font fontName="Arial" size="10"/> </textElement> <textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA[$P{space_1}+$F{BOOK_NO}]]></textFieldExpression> </textField> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- but what i get on the html page is " " ie report changes the & symbol to html & and place it i also created a variable <variable name="space" class="java.lang.String"> <initialValueExpression><![CDATA[" "]]></initialValueExpression> </variable> ------------------------------------------------------------- and also the same result i got any solution for this problem ???? thanks Sony George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
