Yes, it sounds like you're describing client-side interactivity here, and JavaScript or Flash are strong ways to do this. But as Ryan pointed out, much depends on the type of graph you're making. If you're showing net worth at age 65 then that seems like a single bar, but you may be looking at multiple bars for net worth every five years or so, not sure. (In Flash it's pretty straightforward to resize a movie clip to specific dimensions when selection.getFocus changes, and the filesize will likely be significantly smaller than a DHTML version.) jd John Dowdell, Macromedia Tech Support, San Francisco CA US Search technotes: http://www.macromedia.com/support/search/ Offlist email risks capture by the spam filters.
