Line/Scatter charts

[ninners]

Hi,
I am trying to create a line or a scatter chart using data provided by a database. So far I have been able to create bar charts in ASP but I haven't found anything for line/scatter. I am guessing that Javascript is the best way to do this. Does anyone have any good places to look or some basic code to get me started?

Thank you!

ninners, I've never tried it but I'm sure you could us CSS to write the scatter chart pretty easily. Just write a colored box with set coordinates and place an image of a dot using absolute positioning on the chart.

You could also do the lines in a similar fashion using a i pixel image and use javascript to calclulate where it goes... Sounds kind of messy, but you don't know until you try...

Thanks for the input. Never thought to use CSS but will try it out. Thanks again!

ninners,

Are you able to throw your pixel data into a grid? If you can build an array of arrays, the content of each cell being a hex code color, then I can tell you how to display that graph.

Cheers,


Edward
