fixed at the top of the report.
Click on the caption field that you want to change to place
the cursor within the text.Type your changes directly into
the field.
Check the box labeled Insert page break for Microsoft IE

from within IE and determined how your printed report
looks.
Select File> Save periodically (or File> Save and Close to save your report and close the report assembler
window).
19.6.2. Batch Report Assembly
Issue the *CREATE command in batch mode to open and append HTML tags to your report file. By default,
the report assembler uses the *CREATE command to write the report to the ANSYS log file.
19.6.3. Report Assembly Using the JavaScript Interface
For maximum flexibility and usefulness, the report generator employs JavaScript, a coding language for Web
browsers supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. JavaScript allows easy encapsulation
of data and access to that data.
The report generator creates JavaScript functions (in form) as you capture image and text data. Therefore,
rather than using the report generator's built-in report assembler, you can use the JavaScript functions to
manually assemble your HTML-based report.
19.6.3.1. Inserting an Image
The following example JavaScript code creates an image in the HTML report that you are assembling. If the
specified image is not available, your report will contain a message indicating the problem.
imgName('imgCaption');
Following is an explanation of the JavaScript code:
Loads the ansysImages.js file to provide the images. You must include this line of code at least
once in your HTML document and before calling the imgName function. Typically, this line appears in
the section of an HTML document.
