RE: [WEB400] dynamic image generation

["Andrew Borts" <Andrewb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

See I'm not just a sexy body!
        Java approach is OK - and probably works just fine, but if you look @ 
the source for the CNN polls, they use a red & orange graphic, it works in IE 
and Netscape, and BANG - you're making graphs.  Now - if you want a spread 
spectrum graph... (the one with all the dots) NOW you're talking Java...
