Is it possible? The story is as follows.

We have a reporting system written in html, js, and jsp. A user has to enter some inputs on the user interface and when he clicks 'Retrieve' button, it will call jsp and will generate a report in HTML. Users usually generate the same report every morning and now they want to just click a pdf file in the morning which is already prepared for them without having to go to the report interface, type in inputs, clicking retrieve button, and so on. If converting HTML files into PDF is not possible, then is it possible to generate PDF file from jsp directly?

Thanks,
Shine.
 
ya get acrobat and then in acrobat go to open webpage and copy and paste hte url in....Should work.

As for generating pdfs through a server script. It is possible and it is something I am trying to look into for php but me thinks you have to set something up on the server to run the script. [soapbox]
