Ok, so I'm now trying to get my reports opening within a cfwindow. I've got the reporting.cfm page as the value of the source attribute (of cfwindow), and am binding some form values from a cfform on the page containing the cfwindow tag to the url in the source attribute, to be used when reporting.cfm calls the report. I buggered up the bind first off but figured it out using cfdebug in my url, now I'm pretty sure they're working well and aren't the prob.. but now when I click the button that calls the window, it displays a window with absolute gobbledegook as its contents. It does this, regardless of the format (flash or pdf) I choose for the report. Before I tear my hair out trying to figure out where I'm going wrong (well, before I pull any more out) does anyone know if I can actually use cfreport inside a cfwindow? Could that be causing my problem? I just haven't been able to find a reference to it anywhere.
Thanks again Luke -----Original Message----- From: Dale Fraser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 22 October 2007 2:32 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: cfreport question Of course, Just open the report in a new window, when they are done, they close the window and are back where they were. You could also open he report in a frame, div, cfwindow. What ever you like. This should work equally well with either flash player or Pdf versions. Although here we use PDF.

I've got an app that has a reporting component and while I've made good use of cf report builder and have some very funky reports I'd really like to find a way for users to view them without being pushed out of their flow - ie. At the moment pages with cfreport display the reports in the whole browser window, and to return they need to the previous screen they need to use the back button. Is there any way to display cfreports embedded inside the page like a cfdocument can be, so the report is viewed in the context of the rest of the interface? My googling and livedoc'ing have suggested this isn't the case, but I'm hoping I couldn't find the right search term. Or, being a mighty javascript novice, can anyone hook me up with some js that could open a report in a new window? Is that the only other alternative?
