<canvas height="120">
 <dataset type="http" name="foldersDataSet" 
 	request="true"
    src="http://216.187.231.34//akc/display"
	querystring="url=ShowFiledReportsViewJSPURL&ownerUserId=satya&aspire_output_format=object-xml"/>
<window width="200">
	  <simplelayout spacing="5" axis="y"/>
	  <view datapath="foldersDataSet:/AspireDataSet/FoldersLoop1/row">
	    <simplelayout spacing="2" axis="x"/>
      	<text>+</text>
