On click action in SSRS 2005
Hi i am working on a report in SSRS 2005. i have a image in that report. Is it possible that i click that image and the background color of that perticular box changes(That image is placed on a rectangle). So that i know that perticular image in that perticular row has been selected. Is this possible in SSRS? Please let me know if the question is not clear

Thanks for replying. As this is on click action i was not very sure if this could be possible.And i am new to SSRS and this is a bit complex code to write is there any way that u could help me a bit more to finish my task.
The only method I can think of to do this without reloading the report would be to put a javascript:void() function as the URL destination on the navigation properties of the image.
The problem with this is that you need an ID of the report object to do anything with it, and SSRS doesn't assign an ID to report objects. You can force it to assign an ID by making the control toggle the visibility of another control, but I can't even get it to work with this ID (not to mention the fact that you don't know the ID at design time)
So, assuming that we can't do it using javascript, the only other way of doing it is to re-run the report every time you click on anything.
i.e. add a hidden parameter to the report (SelectedID)
When you first run the report, this will be null.
Set the background color of the rectangle to an expression
=IIF(Fields!ID.Value = Parameters!SelectedID.Valu
and the navigation of the image to point back to this same report, with the appropriate ID in the SelectedID parameter.
Then, when you click something, the report will reload with that item highlighted in red.
You can expand this to cope with multiple selections by making the parameter multi value.
Hope this is some help
