Script requirements for viewing reports

To use the report viewer, configure your browser to run scripts.

If scripting isn't enabled, you see an error message similar to the following when you open a report:

Your browser does not support scripts or has been configured to not allow scripts to run. Click here to view this report without scripts.

If you choose to view the report without script support, the report is rendered in HTML without report viewer capabilities such as the report toolbar and the document map.

Note

The report toolbar is part of the HTML Viewer component. By default, the toolbar appears at the top of every report that is rendered in a browser window. The report viewer features include the ability to search the report for information, scroll to a specific page, and adjust the page size for viewing purposes. For more information about the report toolbar or HTML Viewer, see HTML Viewer and the report toolbar.

Browser support for ReportViewer web server controls in Visual Studio

Use the ReportViewer web server control to embed report functionality in an ASP.NET web application. Visual Studio includes the controls, and they support different browsers and browser versions than the other components described in this article. The type of browser you use to view the application determines the kind of ReportViewer functionality that you can provide in your application. Review the following lists to determine which supported browsers and platforms work with the ReportViewer web server controls.

Use a browser that has script support enabled. If the browser can't run scripts, you can't view the report.
