Hi,

My reports looks bad in FireFox. Is there any technique to make the HTML
renderer be compatible with FireFox?

Thank you,
Max

Hi Max,


Thank you for using MSDN Managed Newsgroup Support.

I understand that your report does not show the right format in Firefox
browser.
Unfortunately, Microsoft does not support any browsers other than Internet
Explorer. All the Render Extension in Reporting Services are developed
against IE. So there is no way to guarantee that Reporting Services will
perform well with other browsers.


Please understand that we don't have an environment to reproduce and
troubleshoot your issue, but please feel free to involve me during the
process of contacting third-party support, I am glad to provide any
information.

Sincerely,

Wei Lu

You could also install the IE tab for firefox which should allow you to
view the report as it would be in IE.

Actually, this was a good opportunity to implement the 1st Windows server in
a huge and strictly Unix shop.
We lost (also Microsoft lost) a big big opportunity.
