Re: Form Server?

The form server uses Java Applet, which allow the application to keep the layout exactly as designed. But the report server doesn't, so the layout for a report on the web is very restricted. I'm very frustrated about that. I have a report with background colors, they don't show up on the web at all.

Anyone has an idea?
