embedding RS into a java (j2ee) application

Can anyone point me to some useful information on embedding reports into a
java (J2EE) application?
StephanieNot specifically but I can tell you your options. There are three ways to
integrate reports into an application: roll your own with web services, use
URL integration, use the reportviewer control that comes with VS 2005. Of
these you can use the first two. The control is a 2.0 framework control and
is of no use to you.
The easiest is URL access(search BOL for URL).
Report Manager itself uses web services (Report Manager is really just a
portal that ships with RS. It does nothing that you can't do yourself with
published web services)

(&rc:Toolbar=false). Is there a way to hide sections above the toolbar?
Basically, I want the user to only see the Toolbar and below within the app.
Perhaps the application can manage the Back button functionality?
Also, another quick question: Can you hide the report header and footer with
this sort of option or would you have to add hidden parameters to do that?
Some reports are used within the app and outside the app. When inside the
app, I do not want the report header and footer to show. I'm thinking I have
to add yet another hidden parameter.

control for the html viewer. I tend to hide the parameter area but not the
toolbar.

Correct about the hidden parameter for the report header and footer.
