Report size shrinked in Firefox, how to fix it? Thanks.

  • Hi folks,

    I am new to RS, I just created my first report, it shows fine in IE, however, in Firefox, it shows only less than half size on width and height, how to make it full screen?

    Even in IE, when I export it to PDF format, the actual PDF it generated is in a different page layout, where do I adjust it?

    Third issue is:

    My data source is a stored procedure, originally there was no parameters, everything looks fine, then I added two parameters to it, the sp works fine and the returned data is also correct in SQL, the report also shows correct data when I preview it in report design, but in browser, the data is not correct, still the same like I didn't bring the two parameters in. Is it cached any where? If yes, why it's no use even after I start a new browser window?

    Thanks lots in advance.

    Like Many MS web applications, SSRS is "optimized" to work with IE. In other words it takes advantage of some of the ways in which IE is occasionally non standards compliant. A MS Connect Issue as opened here about FF 3.0.4, perhaps one of the work-arounds listed in this issue will help...

    When you view it via a webpage it displays using the HTML rendering extension. Because of this and the differences between a web page (which is basically has an unlimited length and width by default) and a pdf document (a printed page with finite size boundaries) they will print look differently. when I design reports to be printed instead of to be viewed in the browser, I make sure I always preview them in print preview, not just the page preview and size them accordingly. You can alter the size of report by setting it's size in the report properties...HEre's a link to BOL that explains how to do it. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155929.aspx

    As to your third issue, did you redeploy the report to your report server? Did you setup the parameters in the report properties or just alter the dataset? In order for the report to use them you need to setup the parameters to allow the user to select them. Here's a link to BOL that deals with creating and setting report parameters... http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155917.aspx
