For many, PHP is an easier-to-use technology for building dynamic page content
than Java. KavaChart ProServe includes a PHP chart object that lets PHP
developers use KavaChart's Java technology with no Java coding.
KavaChart's PHP charts are generated by a Java server, such as Tomcat, Resin, or WebSphere. A PHP object is used to construct the URLs that will contain a call to the Java Servlet responsible for rendering the chart data. The PHP code looks something like this:
<?
include 'kavachart.php';
$chart = new chart;
$chart->setProperty('dataset0yValues', '123,321,234,342');
?>
The chart image: <$chart->getImage()?>
The PHP code produces output similar to this:
<IMG SRC="http://www.kavachart.com/PHPChartStream?sn=H4sIAAALBCgH2O9pYYQAAAA%3D%3D" BORDER="0" ALT="">
As long as your web server can access the internet, these pages should work properly, although they'll draw the VE demo information at the bottom of each chart image. To use a local server, simply modify the "imgHost" variable in kavachart.php. See the KavaChart PHP Users Guide for more information. |
