Mac/Safari - SQL Server Report, Collapse on left side

Hello,

We are using SQL Server Reporting services in our web application. When we view the report on IE/FF it works normally.
But when we view it on Safari on MAC/Windows the report is collapse towards left. It is not taking the width as provided.
When we view the PDF it shows the normal report.

How can this issue be solved ?

Thanks,
Deepesh Verma

Hi,

In Reporting Services, you use a Web browser to view reports and run Report Manager. Not all report functionality is supported by all browsers. The following table describes report functionality restrictions for the supported browsers.

Browser type

DescriptionMicrosoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or 7.0 for Windows, with all service packs applied and scripting enabled.Internet Explorer is recommended if you want to use all the available report functionality. Although you can use other browsers to view a report, Internet Explorer for Windows is the only browser that is guaranteed to support the complete set of features for working with reports.Netscape 7.2, Mozilla 1.7, Firefox 1.0.3, Safari 1.3, and Safari 2.0The following features are not supported in third-party browsers:· Document map· Searching within the report· Zoom· Fixed table headersThe following additional features are not available when viewing reports in Safari:· The Calendar control that is used to select dates on a parameterized report that runs on a report server has been disabled for Safari. Users must type the dates that they want to use.· Image source files that are retrieved from remote computers do not display correctly in Safari.· The client-side print control used for printing HTML reports.

If you are accessing a report server from a Macintosh computer, we recommend that you use Safari. Reporting Services does not support Internet Explorer 5.0 for the Mac.

Hello,

Thanks.

But any how we want it to work on Sarafi and we did it by putting a transparent image with the width we want to display.

And it worked for us.

Mac users

We are having issues with Mac users accessing our RS reports.
When they use Safari RS refuses their connection and when they use IE 5 they
are prompted for User/Password/Doman (which is OK) but the drop downs
(prompts) aren't showing up.
Is there a solution?
ThanksGive them a PC! :)
Sorry, couldn't resist.

both mac and pc and got really poor results. Some of the worst problems
were IE on Mac!
I posted on a microsoft forum somewhere but got no response.

downs show up and work.
They were even able to run reports.
The only hick right now is that when they choose a format to export the
"Export" button never gets activated.
Any idead, anyone
