jasper reports - How to export JasperReport to HTML?

Question

I have created one .jasper file for my project. I am getting an output in JasperViewer window, but instead of that I want to see it in HTML output form. How can I do that?

Answer 1

Jasper report project comes with a sample code to export reports to HTML. It's not only a single HTML file, but at least it requires a 1x1 transparent gif used for decorating. It's not a good idea to export reports to HTML files because of portability and printing issues. You can however show HTML reports inside your webserver (which is very commone) using that sample code. See demosampleswebapp application for more details.
