How do you create Reports? FastReport or jQuery plugins?

UniFriends! How do you create Reports? FastReport or special jQuery plugins?

 

What is the best technique if, for example, i have database application, and i want to report some results from there?

 

I see 2 techniques

 

-through the FastReport - to create on the Server pdf file, for example and link user to it from browser   SomeServerPath/Report.pdf

 

-to use some special jQuery plugins.

 

or we don't need any Reports and just can call Print function of the webbrowser?

 

What will be a most simple and effective technique?

 

Thank you in advance!

I use only FastReport as our appliation requires most of our reports to have very specific look to a millimeter. I personally think that creating PDF file on server side is also simple and efficient way to create reports from uniGUI.

We use FastReport VCL and it's working very well.

 

as you are right, use FR to generate PDF or HTML reports on server, and transfer it to client.

 

you can look for demos folder for FR reports demo

Anyway thank you!
