I have all this working the same way as Massimo suggested with matplotlib, no problems.
But, I can't for the life of me figure out how to pass a variable into the controller plot function from the view. This would be so I can, for example, ask the user to choose a variable through a form and then produce a histogram of that variable with matplotlib. Right now I have it working but only if the variable for the histogram is preset in the controller plot function. I tried to set the variable with request.vars like so: <img src="{{=URL(f='myplotfunction', vars=dict(myvar=userselectedvar))}}"/> And then simply use request.vars.myvar in the function: def myplotfunction(): ... return ... Where am I going wrong? I am misunderstanding syntax or how request.vars works? I would appreciate any help. - Josh -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
