I am looking for some software to display graphs on the web. The current software we are using is 5 years old or so and it does not print correctly in Netscape. We just need something we can use to create customized charts.
Thanks

Image of Current Graph

As you can see, the graph is rather plain, and we need to be able to add as many as 24 months to a graph. The current software allows for only 12. It is used on an ASP page and is a Java Applet.

Does it have to be per page dynamicly generated or once a day manual etc.

Me : I would write a page to build the images in HTML etc, but it woulden't look like that.

Do you have the source for the applet (thou JAD will open it), what do you want the end result to be ?

Yes it is dynamicly generated.

here is a snippet of code:

<param NAME=&quot;ChartData.Items&quot; VALUE=&quot;<% Do While (not DataEH.EOF and i < 13) Response.Write Month(DataEH.Fields(&quot;rdg_date&quot;)) &amp; &quot;/&quot; &amp; Right(Cstr(Year(DataEH.Fields(&quot;rdg_date&quot;))),2)%>,
<%DataEH.MoveNext
i=i+1%> <% Loop %>&quot;>
<% DataEH.MoveFirst %>


We use vb script to obtain the database info for the customer currently on the page, and the data for the graph is passed through as a parameter via additional vb script

Thanks for the info...I checked out your links on the bar charts, and they may be the solution. However, I neglected to mention that we may need the ability to have a y axis as well. Thanks again for the info.
