>From what I saw of Jasper a year ago, the html it generated was pretty crud and you had to set up a load of XML in a definitition to generate a report.
Now I may be way off base here, but if you want to generate a report in html and then render it using struts why not use jsp, tiles, velocity or something else which is set up to render webapps in html?

I was going to use jasper (I posted a similar message in jasper mailing list) but I am stucked at the point Of how do I render the report generated by jasper.... If I want to show it to the user, ideally I have to get the report in XML Format and then convert it to HTML via stylesheet.... Jasper generates an HTML report, but I am wondering how can I render it to the user via struts... Anyone has any idea or any suggestions?

To answer your first question we are using the struts framework for the reports also but we are not following all the rules. It depends your requirement.

I searched the archives and found that Jasper reports is a good tool to use, and there are some GUI tools available which will help in report design eg. iReports. I have a couple of questions: 1. Is it advisable to use Struts for the reporting application? Or just a JSP/Servlet based application would suffice? 2. Is there a big learning curve for using Jasper reports/IReports? I would appreciate it if somebody could share their experience in using the above mentioned tools. Thanks, Shyam __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
