HELP! BACK button not working on matrix

I have a report that has a summary matrix containing all urls for a client
which will drill to a second report which is a detail matrix that shows
detail for the selected url from report #1. The problem is that when they
drill to report #2 ... if they expand the matrix to show individual detail
for past 30 days and then want to go back to the previous report and choose
another url ... the back button wont work unless they hit it twice. If they
happen to expand AND contract the detail and THEN want to go back to the prev
report they have to hit the browser back button THREE times. Report manager
or the browser seems to be keeping track of key strokes - however my user is
NOT HAPPY. How can I solve this? I need the equivalent of a BACK button.
But then ... do I have to put in all the parameters that the first report
required again? I am not sure what to do but I have to do it fast!Are you using the browser's back button or the report's back button? If
you're not using the browser's, try it. That should bring you back to
report #1.
You could also launch report two in a new window so that they could
just toggle between the two as they see fit, but I've had trouble
getting a report to launch in a new window.
Mike|||Mike,
Thanks for your reply. I am using the browser's back button (the report
doesnt have one that I can see that will take it to the previous report). I
have not had this problem with other reports ... just the matrix report and I
it has to do with the toggle to expand/contract detail. Launching another
window from the summary (first rpt) isnt allowed because this is deployed to
a portal and I am already launching a separate window there from an asp .net
page to pass report parameters to the first report. They dont want yet
*another* window to get the detail. Any other suggestions? I am not an asp
.net or vb .net wizard - someone else coded the initial UI that launches the
report so if you suggest something along those lines ... please be specific
with an example if possible. Thanks verry much!!
