Some time ago I posted a question here regarding how I might get some of the fields editable in HTML Birt reports. No one could suggest at that time, but since them I solved the problem, and have created a sample project that shows how I achieved it.
It was a fairly specific requirement that drove this, but I am sure other people will have similar ones.
Source code and video attached.
