Oracle Reports 10g Style Sheet

[atagore]

Anyone have a sample Style Sheet to use for landscape print of Oracle Reports 10g (10.1.2.0.2) from IE browser?
DESFORMAT=HTMLCSS
Also any idea where there is extensive documentation about Oracle Reports 10g CSS Class Name property?
Thank you!

You'll probably have more luck asking this in the Oracle forum.

Hope this helps,
Dan

I did check OTN (Oracle Tech Network)

Now I need to know how to "define a Class Name" in the "external style sheet"
Is this it:
myStyle { font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 6 }
or is it like this:
myStyle { font: arial 6pt }

Please RSVP

The first one would be correct. The second one is a shorthand but your syntax is incorrect. Besides, would it not be easier to just try it or google for font syntaxes, rather than waiting here for an answer?

Well...
When the contents of the external style sheet file is EXACTLY this one line
myStyle { font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 6 }
and nothing more and I put the Class Name as
"myStyle" in Oracle Reports 10g and I give Oracle Reprots the path name and file name of the external style sheet file...
Oracle Reports ignores the style commands and uses Times New Roman font style and the font size of 12
So I am hunting for "the right stuff" in a bunch of different forums that I +Googled+ to locate....

You need to put a "." in front of "myStyle":

.myStyle {
   ...
}

Hope this helps,

In case it helps further, identifiers with "." in front are class names, identifiers with "#" in front are IDs, and identifiers without characters in front are element names (such as div, img, etc).

Well,
It is difficult to explain...
We are converting to reports 10g
Current Reports version is 10.1.2.0.2
Deployed on Red Hat Linux AS release 4 Kernel 2.6.9-22.0.1.EL on an i686
On screen everything is great!
The problem is printing.
When I click on the IE browser print icon, each report produces a blank last page...
This blank page does not appear on screen output.
On screen everything is great!

The issue in-house is getting rid of that blank last page.
Is there a way to utilize CSS to accomplish this?
If so, please tell me like I was 10 years old, because I am new to Style Sheets...

The Oracle Report forum indicated that clicking on the browser print icon makes this a browser issue not an Oracle Reports issue...

Do you understand the problem?

 

[BillyRayPreachersSon]

Do you have a print style sheet included on the page?
