hi,
i got a BIG problem. I am using Internet Explorer versions 5 and
5.5. I am getting the input parameters from the user through a
JSP page. On submit of the JSP i call my report by passing all
the necessary information. I am able to get the output in html
format, but the PDF format gives the following errors:
Internet Explorer 5.0 : An error occureed while tyring to open
this document. File does not begin with '%PDF'
Internet Explorer 5.5 : It gives a message box which displays
that "A plugin is required to open this document. Psossilble
location is...." and redirects me to the activex controls page
in microsofts website!.
I am able to launch my reports without any issues if i use the
default parameter form which comes along with Oracle Reports. I
get this error only when i launch my report directly(thru JSP),
without using the parameter form.
Pls help.
Regards,
Prabhu S

Try researching Oracle's support page for bug fix #680974. We had a similar problem but it was with IE4.0, parameters and pdf files. A workaround (suggested by Oracle Support) was:
Open the report in Reports
Open the property sheet for the report
Goto the report escapes section
Find the 'before' form value, click it, and change the 3rd line
FROM "<form method=post action="_action_">"
TO "<form method=get action="_action_">"
This worked for us!
