RE: dynamic image generation

Bars are easy, you can have "gif" image and "stretch it" based upon your
data by telling
the html code the size to make the graphic image; that much I have done, but
as for
line charts and such, you most likely will need a package, or learn a pc
language
to "paint" your graphs on the fly.

Subject: [WEB400] dynamic image generation


I would like to programmatically (dynamically) generate GIF or PNG images
based on AS/400 data. For example, I would like to create a line or bar
graph similar to the stock graphs on yahoo:
<http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=bwa&d=c&t=1y>. I am basically looking to
generate trend graphs based on user input on web forms. (Graph a product
line's productivity for the past year.) Any advice welcomed. Feel free to
respond to either list, I monitor both.

Thanks,
Loyd
