Other than xreporter is there a way I can do this. I do not want to introduce xreporter because I have only one report and I dont want to add complexity to my existing application.
I have a xsp file that generates output which has to be converted to html(thats working) . I need the same resultset obtained in the xsp file to generate a excel if the user requests. Is there a way I can avoid quering the database again? If no, is there a way I can use the html ouput(built with the result data from database) as input to my excel generation. Please reply.. Thanks, Anna.
