Denis,

I've been looking as well.  My solution?  Run Jasper Reports
(http://jasperreports.sf.net) from a Tomcat container integrated with
Apache via mod_jk.so.  Don't have any reports finished yet, so not sure of
speed, etc., but Jasper looks to be pretty full featured and it freely
available.

HTH,

John

Do you mean PHP/MySQL?

if that is the case, why not use Crystal Reports?
Setup MyODBC for your MySQL server and use ODBC to connect to it using
Crystal Reports.

Because Crystal Reports is an overpriced rip-off.  To get full web report
functionality, you have to pay anywhere from $1-$10 for their
enterprise edition.  If you pay anything less, you're limited to only
three connections.

Why buy anything when good open source solutions exist?  Makes no sense. 
Just support the OS projects...make a donation.

I didn't comment on the price of Crystal Reports. I was informing the
poster that it is possible to use Crystal Reports with mysql. 

As for using open source tools, I totally agree with using OpenSource
whenever possible.
