Bars and Pie charts

[riclage]

Hello,

I'm not sure ASP is the right solution for this: I have already an ASP application being developed and I need to show some statistics with bars and pie charts.

I found some ideas on the web but they are either charged or provide just very simple bars charts.

Does anyway know a good component, Java App or another way to show charts that interact with an ASP Application?

If not, could you give me any tips on developing pie and bars charts? It can be in ASP, Java, Delphi or any other language/technology that this would be possible.

Thanks,
Ricardo

Bar charts are easy... you just scale your data and then make different images or coloured cells x pixels long in that scale.

Pie charts however are quite difficult without a dedicated script (that would be quite complicated) and some sort of graphic creation software.

Check out the following link for bar chart scripts: http://www.hotscripts.com/cgi-bin/se...y=bar&catid=35

i'm sure its not that difficult to do a pie chart in programming, most langs must provide objects to represent and manipulate pie chart data. I'll have a look into this as i'm intrigued myself, that is when i find some time (but it'll prolly be too late to answer your question :sad: ). even if i'm wrong, drawing one via code should be too taxing on the old brain cells.

There's a lot of free asp.net stuff for doing charts like this. Just google on "asp.net pie chart".
