I was comparing the two "horizontal" stylesheets (my existing one vs. your new one) in Beyond Compare and experimented by reverting portions of your changes.  I reverted one section back to its origional and it is now displaying correctly in IE.  However, I do not understand all the functionality of XML/XLS so I don't know if I broke anything else.  This attachement is the Beyond Compare report of my modified version to your version.  Can you evaluate why it now works and supply a new set of stylesheets?

Thanks,

Paul

The exmaple sequence given above does display in IE with the modificaiton I descirbed in my previous post (quoted above), however I have a product XML report that still has some issues with the CR displaying in the report text.  It would appear that the section I reverted must cover displaying that report text but at least it now displays...  I think were getting close; just need to fix those few lines, is there some syntax mistake that IE is not handling?

By experimenting, I have determined that the reverted stection of the XLS pertains to ReportText that is from a test step (Pass/Fail, Numeric limit, etc).  So, that is why when I viewed one of my product reports with my modified stylesheet it was still messed up while the example sequence looked ok (it only has an action step).

In our testing we did not find any issues with the posted stylesheets.

Can you post an example sequence and the generated xml report file which shows the incorrect formatting.

Here you go.  The Sequence is the same as before except it has two step types, both output report text

Hi Paul,

I did some testing, and found that I only get the behavior you describe in Firefox.  Please note that we currently only support the IE browser with TestStand reports.  If you are using IE, please send the exact version you are using from help>>about so I can test it (I tested with IE 6,8,and 9, which all worked).

Thanks!

Using IE 9

Hi paul,

After further testing, the problem seems to be a security issue with windows.  On the stylesheets I sent previously, go to the properties window.  Near the bottom, you should see an "unblock" button.  Clicking this button should prevent this behavior.
