Calling Crystal Reports 2013 from Cold fusion 2018

Hello,

  I am migrating an application using an old version of Cold fusion(version 9 or before) and Crystal reports 8 to Windows Server 2016 and Crystal Reports 2013.  In the old application upon opening crystal reports the reports are launched within the browser in a new window. The same behavior is not happening on Windows 2016, I installed Crystal Reports viewer but this is working only when I use the Server to open and access the application. When I connect from other client PCs its not opening as it is looking for a Crystal Reports viewer on the clients. How to make it work like the old application where it would launch within the browser it self ?

Syntax I am using is

<form name="form1" method="get" action="report_view.asp">

<script>

<cfoutput>

window.open('Crystal_reports/ORA_rep1.rpt?prompt0=#session.multi_rep_id#&user0=#Session.UserName#&password0=#Session.Password#', 'CrystalReport', 'resizable=1,HEIGHT=600,WIDTH=800');

</cfoutput>

document.location='MultiReports.cfm?report=1'

</script>

Please advice, this syntax is not working on Windows 2016 server, is there any other way to do this ?

Thanks
