Welcome! 1) There is no one standard way of feeding data to the charts. You can have a fixed data set, implemented in javascript; you can query a Google Spreadsheet for data; you can use server-side scripting (php, java, python, etc) to dynamically generate data sets on page load (pulling data from, for example, a SQL database); you can use AJAX to pull data from a data source and feed it to your charts. Use whichever method works best for you. 2) It's not exactly a standard, but you can use this as a guideline: http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/?type=visualization#full_dashboard 3) In general, best practice is to not pass any sensitive information as a URL parameter. 4) I'm not quite sure what you want here, can you expand on this a bit?
I would recommend starting with something simple. Play around with the charts on the Visualization Playground; experiment with the different ways of constructing them and how the options change the way they look. When you have a feel for the way things work, try building your own from scratch. Dashboards are a bit more complex to implement than individual charts, so I would stick to just the charts to begin with. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Visualization API" group.
