Re: JInitiator: run_product(reports, ..) does not show parameter form

It's not just JInitiator.
Same "problem" or better called functionality exsists when using Netscape, IE or AppletViewjer.

The reports, that are called from web-forms must be designed without parameter form. Any parameters you might need must be read with Oracle Forms (you create new form) and then passed to the report.
