You mean when I click on a drivers name a
new page loads and I draw a new graph without that driver? Yes I thought of
that but that means re-loading everything again. I want to be able to make the swf’s it self hide that graph line with actionscript. Thanks for the suggestion sanyway. Giles Roadnight http://giles.roadnight.name -----Original
Message----- Using
Flash charts you can click on the drivers names to remove them using the click
thru methods. I have never used them yet so cannot comment on their
effectiveness but I guess it is just a case of passing a variable through to
the next page which removes the driver from the series. Might be worth
investigating for your needs. Ellis C

– yes just downloaded one of the swf’s and it is 100 odd k!!! swf
is supposed to be a small quick to download format but in this case the swf is
a lot bigger than the jpg. Surely they can make it smaller than this –
the data wouldn’t take that much space up. Very
tempting to make my own and just pass it some xml with the data in…. Possibly
a future project. Giles

Message----- OK, I am
broadband and it’s not as if it takes ages to appear just longer than I
expected. Anyway, thanks for putting my mind at rest. Shame we
can’t get to the source of the swf and change it – I would like to
add the option to click on Drivers names to remove them form the graph (it gets
a bit busy) and to add a pre-loader. I could make my own fla but that would be
a lot of work to add this minor feature and I would not have the option of
easily switching to jpg is the user does not have flash. I tried
the non-flash version and the images do appear pretty quickly so must just be
the size of the swf’s. Non-flash

Message----- Giles, Just had
a look at your graphs and…..well…..it is little wonder they take a
massive 2seconds to download. There is a lot of data there, 9 series and about
16 datapoints each. I wouldn’t worry about it mate. Have you tried
outputting them as jpg or png to see if that has any load performance
difference. Charts
offer a great way of quickly seeing data in a visual format that is much easier
for us humans to interpret and from what I have seen on your site, there is
little to be concerned about. It could however, be your connection speed. I
have broadband so I would expect it to be quick but that said, it does rule out
the CF Server performance if I can see it within 2 seconds. Regards Ellis C

Message----- I am
using cfchart to produce a couple of graphs here: http://www.arccc.org/results/index.cfm?fuseaction=displayRace&raceID=457 But they
take a while to appear. Is this because the server is generating them each time
the page is called? Is it just the swf download time (would have thought the
sw’fs are quite small). Are cfcharts cached at all? Any help
/ advice appreciated. Giles
