Build Identifier: 2.5.2 We use BIRT engine API to generate MS word document in our code, but we get exception below when we upgrade to Eclipse 3.5.2: ========================= Jun 7, 2010 5:54:09 PM org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.RenderTask render SEVERE: An error happened while running the report.

We use HTML content in report, and we find if we change our HTML content like below: *************** <br /> <table border="0" width="589" align="center"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="96"> <div align="center"> <a href="./../../../publish.openup.base/customcategories/getting_started_5684BDA6.html" *************** to *************** <br /> <table border="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="96"> <div align="center"> <a href="./../../../publish.openup.base/customcategories/getting_started_5684BDA6.html" *************** Then we can generate MS word document successfully, but from HTML specification, http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_table_width.asp , user can use absolute pixel value for width attribute of table, so we think this is a bug of BIRT, also on Eclipse 3.3.2 platform(org.eclipse.birt.report.engine_2.2.2.r22x_v20080107.jar), our code works fine. Thanks much! --Alex Reproducible: Always
Can not reproduce on latest build. Please update your birt version.
Hi JingWen, 1. Which version did you use to test this issue? 2. Could you reproduce the issue with the version I reported? 3. Could you please create a patch for us based on the version I reported? Thanks very much, --Alex
