Hi there, I had created a custom report in Beersmith 2 that worked great.  Now upgraded to Beersmith 3, and things not so good.

Example in Beersmith 2 $fermentables produced a table like structure:
Weigh and Mill Twice
Fermentables
Amt Name Type # %/IBU
6 lbs 10.4 oz Pilsner (2 Row) Bel (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 72.7 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Corn, Flaked (1.3 SRM) Grain 2 13.6 %
6.7 oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 3 4.5 %
13.3 oz Corn Sugar (Dextrose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar 4 9.1 %

In Beersmith 3, it just a long string:

Weigh and Mill Twice Amt Name Type # %/IBU Volume 6 lbs 10.4 oz Pilsner (2 Row) Bel (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 72.7 % 0.52 gal 1 lbs 4.0 oz Corn, Flaked (1.3 SRM) Grain 2 13.6 % 0.10 gal 6.7 oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 3 4.5 % 0.03 gal 13.3 oz Corn Sugar (Dextrose) [Boil] (0.0 SRM) Sugar 4 9.1 % 0.06 gal

The HTML is:
<tr>
<td width="8" style="border-top: none; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; border-left: 1px solid #000000; border-right: none; padding-top: 0cm; padding-bottom: 0.05cm; padding-left: 0.05cm; padding-right: 0cm">
<p class="p2"> </p>
</td>
<td width="632" style="border-top: none; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; border-left: none; border-right: 1px solid #000000; padding-top: 0cm; padding-bottom: 0.05cm; padding-left: 0cm; padding-right: 0.05cm">
<p class="p2">Weigh and Mill Twice $fermentables</p>
</td>
</tr>

Any ideas?

Thx
 
have not changed from BS2 to BS3.  It worked in BS2.  I am not an expert in HTML coding but had it working.

Attached is a pdf printout of one of my recipes using your report. The $fermentables part came out as a table. I don't have any idea why it isn't working for you. I did notice that you haven't included the BeerSmith standard style sheet. If you add this line in your <head> section and put the style.css file in your Reports directory it will include the BeerSmith styles:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css">

That might not fix your problem, but it will change the appearance of your report and give you reports that look more like the built-in ones. If you don't like that look, just delete the line above.

Solved!  When I defined the report to BS3, I inadvertantly set it to plain txt vs HTML type report.  It looks better than before..

thx for the help
