What is your web development environment? IIS w/ ASP or Apache Tomcat w/ JSP?
Does your report have parameters?
Can your report be generated in advance or does it have to be generated when the user hits your web page?
- If it can be generated in advance, did you know that Crystal Report output can be exported to HTML format? So once you generate the report (using Crystal Reports Professional), simply save the output to HTML, copy it to your web server, and refererence the image in your web page.
Jayapen, please edit your question with more information so I can help you.

hai!
Crystal Reports is not easy to work with, and it has plenty of bugs and quarks in my experience. But the big companies all seem to like it so I had to develop a generic approach to using it.
One of the worst features of Crystal Reports is the way it handles report Parameters by presenting each parameter in a separate screen which clients really hate! To solve this, this demo will show you how to present ALL of the parameters contained in a .rpt file in a SINGLE screen to the user.
Crystal Reports creates a binary file with a ".rpt" extension that contains ALL of the information we need to display any report, and so that is what we will use in this generic solution.
Select the .rpt file
Read the parameter information directly from the .rpt file
Build a table dynamically displaying all of the parameters in the selected .rpt report file.
The parameter table that we create dynamically must also contain controls that are also created dynamically to facilitate the users selection of parameters like a date calendar, checkboxes, etc.
We must create validation controls dynamically from the parameter data that we read from the .rpt file.
Finally, we pass the parameter data into the Crystal Viewer and display our selected Crystal Report.
Database connection information is read dynamically from the selected .rpt file.

I see 2 potential issues. First, you assert this is HTML, however the header says this is XHTML. those are comparable, yet no longer same. in the adventure that your code isn't XHTML compliant and you mentioned that's - this might create a difficulty. additionally, your code will possibly no longer be referencing the region of the image records wisely. that's problematic. especially circumstances your editor will detect and show them, yet as quickly as you circulate to an honestly browser, you ought to offer an absolute particularly of a relative place for the records.
