Vector Markup Language (VML) Charts Version 2

** On 1/31/02 I have posted a Scalable Vector Graphics/JavaScript version ... check Java/JavaScript site for code or visit my website at home.att.net/~p.walchli **. Create VML Charts on the fly with ASP. This is (finally) Version 2 of what I previously posted. I have included five files (VML.asp, BuildPage.asp, BuildLineChart.asp, BuildBarChart.asp, and BuildPie.asp) that will show you how to choose a chart type, enter some values and build the chart. As I have mentioned before, and do so in each file, VML does not render in anything but Internet Explorer 5.0 (IE 5.0). IE 5.5 seems to have some quirks rendering text … I have not worked on a work-around as of yet. I have also not tested the code in IE 6.0. Please let me know how it works if you do. That said, VML is excellent for a controlled environment using IE 5.0. I would also plan on one day converting your VML over to Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). SVG will be (at least it appears that way today) far more widely supported. Contact me with any questions or if you find any bugs. Enjoy!
