parameter screen pop-up
LetsBIRT
Hi,
How can i be able to make the parameter screen pop-up even if the parameter is not required?
When i was looking at some of the previous posts, i found this:
add __parameterpage=true to the url to get it to popup the parameter
page automatically.
But, I am not sure what this url is ? Can you please let me know.
Thanks.

The URL they're talking about is the url that calls the reports when you've deployed the web viewer. For example, I have a report that has parameters that I deployed to the web viewer. In the first URL here, I have __parameterpage=false, so the parameter page never shows up.<br />
<br />
<a class='bbc_url' href='
http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/run?__report=PDF-fittopage.rptdesign&__parameterpage=false'>http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/run?__report=PDF-fittopage.rptdesign&__parameterpage=false</a><br
/>
<br />
In this URL, I have __parameterpage=true, so the parameter page always shows, no matter if the parameter is required or not.<br />
<br />
<a class='bbc_url' href='
http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/run?__report=PDF-fittopage.rptdesign&__parameterpage=true'>http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/run?__report=PDF-fittopage.rptdesign&__parameterpage=true</a><br
/>
<br />
If you leave it off, I believe the parameter page shows only if the parameter is required.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps.

mwilliams
It would be in your browser.

I think i am a little confused, you are saying ..when i run the report, while its getting the paramter screen..thats when i add the _parameterpage = true/false?

LB,
Have you created a web project and deployed the BIRT viewer in Apache Tomcat?
LetsBIRT
No, i dont believe i have done this.
Can you please help me find information on how to do this.
Thanks, LB
