RE: CF Charting question
I have always used CFCHAT but for my next project I am going to give "Flot" a try, looks really cool and runs over jQuery. Refs: http://ajaxian.com/archives/plotting-in-jquery http://code.google.com/p/flot/ -- Jay -Original Message- From: Bruce Sorge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 31 January 2008 20:58 To: CF-Talk Subject: CF Charting question Has anyone used the CF Charting and graphing tags lately? I have a portion of our district site that I want to include charts and graphs for reports. In the past I used PopCharts which was a very cool application, but the school district does not like to spend that kind of money. Basically I want to have something like a pie chart, and when you click on it, it drills down to the details of that slice. Simple stuff like that.

Re: CF Charting question
Thanks. I think that this app qualifies as simple. And Flex is not an option at this point as I am going back into the military and the district is going to very hard pressed to find a CF developer much less a flex developer.

Re: CF Charting question
CFCHART works ok on simple things, but as soon as you get into any sort of detail, like drilling down, I'd recommend moving up to Flex. I had a similar situation where we thought CFCHART would work and in the end I had to do it all in Flex. The charting tools work really well, they are in Flash and can very easily connect to a variety of data that CF can provide. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:297843 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
