I am developing a web app. My users want to be able to design their own reports. Is there a way I can embed a simple Report Designer in my app? If so, which Report Designer app should I use? The Report Designer should be an existing app. I don't want to create a Report Designer from scratch. More details: My app is an ASP.NET MVC application. But I can use Java based solutions too, using IKVM.
When designing an rdlc report using the VS 2010 report designer, report items such as charts demand a dataset. After designing the report, I add a ReportViewer to a webform, and it demands all of its own datasources. How do I hook up the DataSet I have coupled to the report without duplicating the DAL functionality in the viewer page?
Does anyone know of a way to embed a web browser within a web page, e.g. through a Java applet or similar mechanism? I have reviewed the discussion on various solutions for embedding a browser in a Java application. However, this will not work for our web-based tool, which is built on an asp.net framework. Using a Java applet is our current idea, but if you have other suggestions to address this issue This is to be used in a web-based tool that guides middle school, high school, and college students to read websites critically. The tool provides a set of guiding questions and other information along with a data-entry box surrounding the actual 3rd party web-page being viewed. The purpose of our tool is to allow teachers to choose websites for students to view and analyze - or allow students to choose the sites themselves. We (/the tool) do not control what sites or types of media are chosen.
We are currently loading the web-page in an IFrame, but that technique is limited in several ways. It does not provide full control for browser-like features we would like to provide, and is very sensitive to changes in both third party web-sites and to browser versions used by students. The most difficult issue we have pertains to anti-hijacking mechanisms used on the third-party sites. For good reasons, they use mechanisms that make them impossible to load into an iFrame -- that is, when you try to load the page into the iFrame, it will take over the entire browser window. Not only will the page not load WITHIN our frame, it will actually make our application "disappear", thereby making it impossible for students to use these sites within our tool, and potentially also causing students to lose their work.

We have some reports that are loaded on a asp.net webpage via the localreport.render() and a request has come in to hide a logo image if it is displayed inline as html on the page and only show the image if it's rendered as a pdf.
is there any way to determine the render mode in the report so i can create an expression to set the display property to hidden for the logo image if it's not pdf mode?
Providing web features through a custom HttpHandler such as in Elmah is extremely handy for ASP.NET Web Applications, because the handler can be embedded into any ASP.NET web app. It perfectly fits as a simple way to extend an existing web app. Now, developing any significant set of features through a custom handler is a very tedious process. I am wondering if it is possible to directly embed an ASP.NET Application into another one through a custom handler (as opposed to cut and pasting the whole app in a sub directory). Here is a small list of embedded web app that would be fit for such a purpose:
Health monitoring console. Provisioning console (for cloud web app with auto-scaling). App settings management console (considering a scheme IoC-settings-stored-in-DB). Each one of those web parts could be provided as an HttpHandler; but again implementation is really tedious. Does anyone know how to do that or how to achieve an equivalent behavior?
