Description madhuri.bollineni2007 CLA 2011-09-20 02:22:55 EDT 
Hi,

  I need the footer to be fixed at the bottom of every page.
To achieve this I have placed footer content in Master page.I am getting the footer in every page but where exactly I am facing the problem is explained in detail below. 
My page fits 35 rows.
So when I get 35 rows in my report, my footer is fixed at the bottom.
But when the rows retrieved are less than 35, for eg: 10 rows , then my report displays 10 rows then next immediate to the detail rows my footer is attached.

What exactly I want is irrespective of rows retrieved, my footer should be fixed at bottom of every page.

So can any one take an initiative to help me with the problem. This problem is very critical to me.

Any help is appreciated!!!

In advance Thanks!!!


Regards
MadhuB

Hi,

  Actually I need to show footer at a fixed position which should be at bottom of the page always.
In Detail:-
----------
I used a page break of 35 records for my report. If my report retrieves 35 records, then my footer displays at bottom of every page. But if report retrieves just 10 records, then my footer is displayed next immediate to the detail line.
But my requirement is to always display footer at bottom of every page irrespective of number of records shown.

I am viewing in HTML. We don't prefer pdf.

Attached is my .rptdesign.

You can add a parameter &__pageFooterFloatFlag=False at the end of preview url. It should resolve your problem.
