I am using WF8.2 and I am using an active html document report ("COMPOUND LAYOUT PCHOLD FORMAT AHTML")
I want to create a report which holds a snippet of html that would appear in a frame in the document, but I have not found a way to do this. The reason for this is the customer wants to be able to change the contents of this frame over time.
I have tried to create a fex using -HTMLFORM and then I use reference existing report and import this report. It appears well in the AppStudio tool, but when I run it, the rest of the report is gone.
This is due to the resulting fex simply doing an -INCLUDE, and not really forming a sandbox for the report/frame to appear in.
Is there any other way to make this work? Note that I am using the AHTML document feature and not the html composer. The resulting report must work offline with the exception of the html snippet.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Emily McAllister>,

Hi
Since the html part is not intended for offline you could create 2 version of this report:
1. Standalone for offline by calling directly the compound AHTML
2. Online version using regular html frameset or via the html composer creating a frame which will call the html and a frame or iframe which will call the compound fex to generate the ahtml
Then in a fex you could switch between these 2 options using a parameter
