monbster Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 After some attempts with Javascript charting tools, I've found PHP to be much better suited for the task. Using the Image_Graph package (http://pear.veggerby.dk/) from PEAR (http://pear.php.net/) I've managed to make some nice charts. However, there are some things I'm unable to do, so I was wondering what anyone else has used to output chart or graph data? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_bertrand Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Re: Charts, graphs or other data display Yes I do using the PHP / GD functions. Plotting lines / text / rectangles for example to draw line graphs or bar graphs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decepti0n Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Re: Charts, graphs or other data display I've done a few, mostly crap, and some other things like captchas :D The weirdest was a speed dial sort of thing, give it a percentage and it'll move around, 50% is straight up, 0/100% is horizontal Worked well after i figured out the maths of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monbster Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 Re: Charts, graphs or other data display Well for anyone that needs to make real nice looking charts and data displays I would definitely recommend PEAR Image_Graph. The output is at least as good as Excel '98 and can look even better with some tweaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
