I think it would be really cool to be able to do that. One thing you can do now is put in a 'link' in a report to open a dialog. For example, see the welcome-to-gnucash report. I don't think we have tried using in-report html controls, but I think it should be possible. The current report infrastructure doesn't handle that, so you would have some hacking to do. dave
