Remarks

This event is used for creating a customized view of controls on a Web page.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to use the XRControl.HtmlItemCreated event to customize the content of an XRLabel control, when a report is exported to HTML. In the event handler, create two custom HTML elements, which will display a check box and a hyperlink on a Web page, and add them to the control’s content using the HtmlEventArgs.ContentCell property of the event parameter.

Follow the steps below to create a sample project.

1. Start Visual Studio and create a new Windows Forms Application or open an existing one.
2. Add a new report (named XtraReport1 ) to the application.
3. Drop an XRLabel control onto a report and handle its HtmlItemCreated event as follows.

Then, to export a report to HTML, you can use code similar to the following.

• C#
• VB.NET

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Diagnostics;
// ...

private void ExportToHTML() {
    XtraReport1 report = new XtraReport1();
    report.ExportToHtml("Test.html");
    StartProcess("Test.html");
}

public void StartProcess(string path) {
    Process process = new Process();
    try {
        process.StartInfo.FileName = path;
        process.Start();
        process.WaitForInputIdle();
    }
    catch { }
}

Imports System
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Diagnostics
' ...

Private Sub ExportToHTML()
    Dim report As New XtraReport1()
    report.ExportToHtml("Test.html")
    StartProcess("Test.html")
End Sub

Public Sub StartProcess(ByVal path As String)
    Dim process As New Process()
    Try
        process.StartInfo.FileName = path
        process.Start()
        process.WaitForInputIdle()
    Catch
    End Try
End Sub
