Description tero CLA 2009-04-16 03:30:34 EDT 
Build ID: M20080911-1700

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a Dynamic Web Project (JSF 1.2)
2. develope a simple login page (jsp/jsf) which navigates to a test jsf (jsp) page
3. in that test jsf page create a <f:view> <h:form> section within the <body>
4. in that h:form section code a birt:viewer report as follows:
<birt:viewer id="2" baseURL="http://localhost:8080/WebViewerExample"  
             isHostPage="false" reportDesign="..\MyApp\testRep.rptdesign"
             width="600" height="300">
</birt:viewer>
5. test the pages and see that the report is not showing up but a (transparent) square
6. if you test now the same outside of the h:form section: it works! the report is there.

More information:
In the case described in (5.) there also is a javascript error.

Tero

possible issue: the JSF framework adds as prefix the h:form id to the subcomponents of the form (builds a tree of names). May this be affecting the report comunication in javascript?
