chartservlets no showing charts in the message part of emails

[Former Member]

Hi forum,

I created a irpt page with servlets and chartservlets . They all look and work fine . However, when I use the HTML Loader action and send the String Content to the message in a send mail action , there are no charts coming out from the chartservlets. The message content type is set correctly ( text/html ) .

I appreciate very much your handy help .

Best Regards,

Antonio

Hi,

When you use Servlet and ChartServlet in irpt page that page has to be run from the web server and not as a local file such as email attachment. So if you want the user to see the whole page you just need to send its URL. But for your requirement I think it'll be better if you can generate the chart images using the Chart action blocks in BLS and send as email attachment as an image. For the report you can get the csv out of it by specifying the content-type=text/csv, save it using textsaver action and also email it as attachment.

Thanks,
