Hi,

I have SSRS report contains a text box with property "Markup type" set to HTML - Interpret HTML tags as styles.

And I have the value return from my db

XML

<html><P>Hi,</P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This to inform you&nbsp;&nbsp;that you owe&nbsp;us</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Regards</P>
<P>XXXXXX</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir=ltr>
<BLOCKQUOTE style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir=ltr>
<P>Note:- Pentaly&nbsp;will be applied if not paid within the period&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </P></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></html>

But the actually output of the report don't have any impact on & nbsp; and BLOCKQUOTE tags. while searching in web, I came across that SSRS support only few HTML tags.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff519562.aspx[^]

And the HTML to the report is Dynamic from the another application.

Do we have any solution to make these tag to work in SSRS as it was working with normal HTML

Any suggestion are highly appreciated.
