Formatting Issues with Report Viewer 9.0 and IE 9

environment

·         sql server 2008 (tried sp1, sp2, & sp3; seems make no difference)

·         report viewer 10 (tried sp1 release well; seems make no difference.

asp.net framework 4.0 sp1, c#

web application, being viewed in ie9

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

we've had sql reports/report viewer in production 2 years in commercial web app. of ie9, rendering of report , handling of within report viewer changed drastically our prior experience.

i first noticed rendering problems in venerable report viewer 9.0.0.0 had been relying on. major issue failure respect sizing of layouts, resulting in text wrapping , other undesired attempts renderer display report in minimal shrunken space.  i decided because aging reportviewer didn't support more recent browsers, , upgraded reportviewer 10.  this has fixed original problem, given me whole new range of headaches.

things i've noticed far:

1) white space in header or footer of report of amount not rendered larger header or footer more white space, instead rendered frame scroll bars.  i can partially fix going through 40 or reports , making sure header or footer never has more height largest control in it, see #7.

2) embedded images, defined within .rdl , not linked external resource, not not rendered in reports. in 1 case image rendered (why?), handled differently in prior reports resulting in part of image being trimmed away , different placement relative text in text box.

3) report viewer control/toolbar no longer expands fit enclosing html container (in case div), when directed use width of 100%.

4) report viewer control resizes contents of report, shrinking contain report once asynchronous rendering finishes. particularly weird because not 2 different reports (say 8.5"x10" , 10"x8.5" landscaped report) differ in utilized screen real estate, 2 different reports same properties (8.5"x10" page sizes) displayed using differing number of pixels.

5) report viewer control seemingly randomly resizes when paginating through report, growing or shrinking depending on contents of report.  changing size not seem in way relate report definition of page, report repeating elements on separate pages not maintain constant size between 2 elements, rather data.  this , many other problems seem related rendering not respecting size of report elements, , instead of wrapping contents, expanding or contracting table element fit contents.

6) report viewer control no longer respects page width , whole page options zoom drop down, , not handle zoom @ when zooming 'in' (150% or 200%).

7) when report header , report footer have no white space, scroll bars appear , report header , footer rendered large when report paged through.

8) if column of table sortable, vertical , horizontal scroll bars appear in column header.

9) spurious non-functional scrollbar images/overlays appear appended table cells within table text has wrapped.

oddly, exception of images being unrendered, these problems not appear in mozilla firefox.

any appreciated.

thanks,
