Strate SQL

SSRS And Firefox

One of the issues I've had time and again with Firefox and SQL Server Reporting Services is the disconnect between the table control in SSRS and width settings in Firefox.  If you've run into this before you'll know that Firefox pretty much ignore the width settings and collapses the table into a sandwhich of the data on the left hand side of the page.

As this is an issue with the ever growing usage of Firefox, there is a trick that can be used to avoid this problem and have the report scale correctly.  Just do the following:
  1. Add a textbox to the report that is the same width as the report.
  2. Right justify the textbox
I also go ahead and change the font to 1 point so that I can collapse the text box to the smallest possible size.  But that isn't really required.
