Embed report list, reports and report studio in a Web 2.0 app
qaxyf
I'm looking into embedding Actuate into a Web 2.0 application.
Part of the requirement is to be able to show a list of reports (without anything else surrounding them) in an IFrame and upon selecting one of the reports retrieve that report (no popup).
Additionally I would need a customized Report Studio to assist with creating new reports.
What would be a good place to start (articles, howtos, ...)?
Thanks in advance,

Actuate's commercial product, offer exactly what you are looking for. <br />

Using the Javascript API you can render report content with web 2.0 style interactivity, contained within an HTML div tag.<br />

here's a DevShare article just posted which does exactly that:<br />

the other item you wanted to display a list of reports, this can be done many different ways with Actuate, including displaying them in an Iframe. the Actuate Java Component, or Actuate Viewer, comes with JSR 168 portlets to display the file/folder list, or you can use the JSP files contained within to source the content into an IFrame.
