I've had good success in creating SVG (Scalable Vector Graphic) documents for producing bar/line/pie graphs... The format uses an XML document for its structure, so producing data from a database connection is very easy and produces nice results.. More information at: http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Overview.htm8 It does require a download of a viewer to embed documents into the webpage... available from adobe... There is also a SDK for converting SVG documents to a raster image (PNG, Gif, Jpeg) called Batik, I believe. I found this to be a little easier than gd, plus a lot more exchangable (due to its XML nature). Hope this proves to be helpful! -- Aaron Bennett abennett@liquidstudio.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gonyou, Austin" <austin@coremetrics.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2001 1:13 PM Subject: [PHP] Using PHP + GD to make bar graphs? > I'm looking to see if it's possible to do something like this.
