#1 is PHP/SWF Charts
PHP/SWF Charts (maani.us/charts) creates attractive, colorful, animated
charts and graphs on the web. Your scripts provide the data, which can
come from your DB2 database or any other source. The charts are built in
Flash, the popular cross-browser technology. (Flash Player 6 or later
must be installed in your visitors' browsers. You can download Flash for
free at macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer.)
The basic version of PHP/SWF Charts is free. For the registered
version, which includes technical support and the ability to link charts
to other web content and embed charts in other Flash documents, the
author charges a modest license fee...
Good Luck,

Hi Kevin,
Midrange.com is well a sleep...So no hope for resolution from there.
In regard to the solutions based en JavaScripting; In fact we would
also like to use this functionality for other type of things like
reporting into PDF and such.
JavaScript solutions would limit it to use in Browsers.
It is however something to bare in mind when other options fall short
(giving the timelines).
Eduard.

Ahh, I see * you are investigating the possibility of combining both
PHP and an RPG. I suppose there may well be some people on the easy400
mailing list that use PHP for the purpose you describe, but I see that
you also posted to midrange.com * you might get a more definitive answer
there. As I alluded before, you can get some very feature rich
javascript-based solutions for graphics and charts. I think PHP is
great, but using it *just* to get some graphics capabilities seems a bit
like a sledgehammer to crack a walnut * unless you already have plenty
if PHP development experience in-house.

Thanks Kevin,
We develop iSeries websites using RPG in our own brand of framework.
We do not intend to use PHP for that.
We where thinking of utilizing PHP capacity to generate graphics and to
use those on our sites.
In our view we would do HTTP request to an internal webinstance to do
so.
Offcourse we are open for other/easier/ better/safer other options.
We do not know all or do not know all possibilities.
Kind regards,
Eduard Sluis

The charts you see on some of the example applications on
http://rns.coraltre e.co.uk (user id and password of *demo*) are all
done with CGIDEV2 and Fusion Charts Lite from
http://www.fusionch
arts.com/ free/ You can use any javascript solution really * the
question is more about whether you want to create your web-enabled
iSeries apps with PHP or use RPG/CGIDEV2.

Dear All,
We have a need and a wish to incorporate graphics/charts based on
iSeries data into our iSeries websites.
We think of using PHP for that and more specifically PHP_DG2 to
generate the graphics.
We however have no experience with PHP on the iSeries.
We know that PHP Zend is available as PASE solution on the iSeries but
we are not sure if we can also use PHP_DG2 or another graphic generator
on the iSeries.
Before going seriously on this road, does someone has experience with
this on the iSeries and can say, yes/no/ be aware for/this works best.
By the way 'All the best for the rest of this year'.
Kind regards,
Eduard Sluis.
