Problems setting webform Report Viewer control height to 100%
Chris G.
I have an ASP.NET app using the Report Viewer control.
I would like the Report Viewer control to resize as the browser (web page)
is resized.
Setting <rsweb:ReportViewer ... Width="100%" ... </rsweb:ReportViewer>
controls the width as expected. As the page is made wider, the control
resizes.
However, when I use <rsweb:ReportViewer ... Height="100%" ...
</rsweb:ReportViewer> to do the same for the height of the control, the
report content does not appear. The toolbars appear, but the report content
does not.
I have to do something like <rsweb:ReportViewer ... Height="300px" ...
</rsweb:ReportViewer> to get my report content to appear.
Is this a known problem?
Is there something I am overlooking, like is there another property I need
to set to get this to work? I cannot find any other property that looks like
it is related to this problem.

This is a XHTML artifact. If you remove the doctype in the asp.net page, it
will work.
Please remove the line <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> in the asp.net
page.

How is everything going? Does my suggestion resolve your problem?
If you have any feedback, please feel free to let me know.

Can you explain in more detail what you mean? Why is the presence of DOCTYPE
causing this behavior in the Report Viewer Control?

Our ASP.NET pages have this line:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
Not the one that you mentioned.
Also, I removed the line of code above, and it made no difference. The
report content still does not appear when Height="100%". Only the Report
Viewer Control tool bars appear. The report does not appear in the HTML
rendering. However, if I export the report being viewed to PDF format, all
report content is rendered. This looks like a bug in the Report Viewer
Control.

How you test the page?
Would you please try to test on a simple page with only one report viewer
control on it?
Please remove the line and have the height to "100%" for the report viewer.

control on it?
I can, but my application does not have a "simple page with only one report
viewer
control on it". So even if it works on a simple page that does not solve my
problem.
How do you propose that I fix this problem in my application?

What is the nature of your page? Is it ASP.NET 1.0, 1.1 or 2.0?
Are you using master pages? (we are).

The good news is I solved my problem.
I did have to remove the !DOCTYPE as you suggested. But the problem also was
related to the fact that the Report Viewer Control was contained inside a
table on the page. And that table had no height specified. Once I set
height="100%" on the table, the report content for the Report Viewer Control
appeared. I thought that if you do not set a size for an html table, that it
will be sized based on its content. Since the Report Viewer Control shows the
report pages, I would expect the table to be sized accordingly. Anyway I am
not sure I understand why my fix solved the problem, but it did fix it.

I had some questions in a earlier pose in this thread that you did not
answer. Can you please answer them now?

I think this is that the Report Viewer Control rendered the HTML code does
not matc the XHTML artifact.
This issue is a known issue of the Report Viewer Control. I got this
workaround from the product team and they do not provide more detailed
information on this issue.
Anyway, I am glad to discuss more detail on this issue but since this is
relate the Report Viewer Control Code, I could not provide more detailed
information now. Thank you for your follow up.

excuse for the delay of my answer.
1) Asp.Net 2.0
2) No, I don't use master page!

set AsyncRendering to false in the Report viewer control, that should solve your problem.
For Example..
<rsweb:ReportViewer ID="rptViewer" SizeToReportContent="true" Width="100%" runat="server" AsyncRendering="false">
</rsweb:ReportViewer>
Chill !!!
