I've been using Crystal Reports viewed via the web for sometime. As I am using an IIS server I've been using asp pages and it works great. I am using a program called recrystallize (www.recrystallize.com) which is a wizard that processes your rpt file and you need to provide the database connection information, parameters and how you want the report to be displayed. Once the process is completed it generates the ASP pages which you place on your web server. I've been using it for years and it's a great tool.
