I am trying to take realtime text data from my website and allow users to place it on their MySpace profile. But MySpace only its members to add HTML, images, and flash to their profiles so I have been trying to output the text data from my site as a JPG or Flash that MySpace users can then add to their profiles. Then I figure can set up a scheduled task to refresh the JPG or Flash, so the latest data will appear on MySpace. I have had some success using CFCHART and saving the output to the server via writing to CFFILE, but in this case I am trying to display mostly dynamic text from the database. Therefore, I really don't need the chart that is produced, so I am using imagemagick to crop out the chart an just keep the text that is produced from CFCHART. But this 2 step process would be unnecessary if I could just output text from the database to an image like CFCHART does (but without the chart). If elaborate 3-D charts can be created with ColdFusion, surely there is a way for me to just output text from my database into an image or flash for later use with MySpace, right? Thanks in advance....
