Cannot go back to main ssrs report from a drill thru report in Chrome report viewer

Question

I have a SSRS report with includes a Drill Through report. When I run the report from Report Manager and click the link to go to the Drill Through Report, there is a 'Back' button so the user can go back to the main report.

When I display this same report in my AngularJS application that has a Report Viewer, I can go to the Drill Through Report when I click the link but I cannot go back to the main report. If I use the back button on the Google Chrome Browser, I have to re-enter all of the parameters of the report.

Does the Report Viewer not allow a user to go back to a main report from a subreport?

Answer 1

From the SSRS 2008 R2 documentation on Browser Compatibility:

To run Report Manager and use Report Manager to view reports, you must use Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher and scripting must be enabled. Internet Explorer 8.0 or higher is recommended.

Google Chrome is not a supported browser, which is probably why you are missing some functionality.
