in reply to Generating images from a text file
Thanks again guys,
I tried and tried the table variant, however, tables ended up being very unpredictable in different browsers. I tried setting the 'graph' to 50 1px cells, then looping though the hash and sending the cell with color until the 'bar graph' should end. The results were less then pritty....
I finally broke down, and made a 1x10px image, then, rather then sending table cells, send img html code for the bar 'length'. The result, looks considerably better, although the code is rather scrappy (IMHO). I doubt anyone here would be interested in it, but if someone really wants it..... The graph generated is for a site hit counter, and generates a bar graph that is flexable enough to make the output look better then the code.
Before asking, take a look at the code in action, at delusional.de (click the 1234 icon at the bottom), if you still want it, then use the email links there, and I'll send it over. Don't know if pasting my sloppy code here with you pros is a good idea. :-P
