web dynpro application coding

[rk]

hi

I am developing a application in web dynpro, I want the output to be displayed in html format.
earlier the program has a third party tool used for printing the output in pdf format ie itext.
I am posting the code also so please suggest me how to go forward in order to get the output displayed in html format, by removing the third party tool.(itext)

thanks

This looks like a continuation of your other post, now in Java in General (Beginner). Please change your display name as I asked you in that previous thread; if you post again without changing it, your account will be closed. Thanks.

No idea what "web dynpro" is, but now I see that your question is basically "How do I emit HTML instead of PDF using iText?" The last I checked, iText supported HTML output, so it's just a matter of checking the iText documentation and making a few small changes to your code.

If you don't want to use iText at all, well, then you just have to print HTML, or use some other library -- or forward the query results to a JSP, which is by far the preferred way to do this.

I'm closing this thread and moving it to servlets, in the hopes that someone there will help you understand what I said above.

Please do not start yet another thread; continue this conversation in this same thread in the Servlets forum, after I move it.

hi
As per my earlier query to print the output in HtML format, I was using the itext third party tool, I don't want to use iText at all, well, just have to print output in HTML format, kindly suggest me the logic of coding.

thanks

Actually I did see what the problem was, and then I scrolled down - that was a big mistake. When I looked again after scrolling up it was gone - I think.

OK, now about your post up there. There are these cool "CODE" tags that you can place around your code and it will keep your formatting. It will keep the indentation, which will make your code readable.

There is so much code posted up there that it is difficult to spend the time reading it, especially when it isn't formatted.

Next time try to just post the necessary code that will make the point or show where an error might be. It will help everyone out and we can better help you.
