How to embed a HTML-Page in Report?

[jaroslaw.nawrot]

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm trying to include a simple HTML page (a small table) from a remote server in my report, unfortunately it looks not so simple, as I thought...

 

I'm using jasper-htmlcomponent in this way:

<componentElement>    <reportElement x="129" y="50" width="300" height="350" uuid="b346885c-8588-427f-b9f3-e262c34ce1ed"/>    <hc:html xmlns:hc="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/htmlcomponent" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/htmlcomponent http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/htmlcomponent.xsd" scaleType="RetainShape" horizontalAlign="Left" verticalAlign="Middle">        <hc:htmlContentExpression><![CDATA["<p>It works!</p>"]]></hc:htmlContentExpression>    </hc:html></componentElement>[/code]

 

That works. Then I thought, I could try something like:

"<frameset cols='100%'><frame src='http://myserver.com/test.html'></frameset>" [/code]

 

Unfortunately I get an empty page, though I can see in the Apache-Logs on the remote server, that the file "test.html" is being successfully downloaded from Jasper.

 

I've also tried with:

<iframe src="http://myserver.com/test.html"></iframe>[/code]

and with

textFieldExpression / textElement markup="html"[/code]

but it's the same.

 

The only way I've found is to use

(new java.util.Scanner(new java.io.FileInputStream(new java.io.File("/opt/www/test.html"))))[/code]

 

but the real page I want to use is dynamically generated on a remote server, so this is no solution for me.

 

Can You please help?

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Best regards,

 

Jaracz

Problem solved!

 

For those, who also want to include some remote HTML in report:

 

<hc:htmlContentExpression><![CDATA[(new java.util.Scanner(new java.io.BufferedReader(new java.io.InputStreamReader(new java.net.URL("http://path.to.server/page").openStream())))).useDelimiter("\A").next()]]></hc:htmlContentExpression>[/code]

 

Best regards,

 

Jaracz

Hi Jaracz,

Which version of Jaspersoft Server are You using? Trying with 6.1 and 6.2, when I publish a report with an Html component I get an error of "invalid JRXML" and it seems a kind of bug of the Server.

best regards,

Mirco
