Hmmm I can't think of a way to do that - because in the end, <img/> tags always make GET requests. In Flash you may be able to get the raw image data from the POST, decode it, then display. We sure could use some help getting our native charting apps in order :)

Hello everybody!

I'm trying to integrate OL's<image/>  with google charts. This is
actually rather easy with few datapoints (a number that allows the whole
string to fit into a HTTP GET request).
Since I have a lot of data, I'd like to use the POST interface of OL.
It works like passing the same query string you would pass with the HTTP
GET as the POST content and getting back the PNG depicting the chart.
The issue that doesn't look clear to me is: how can I ask for a PNG
using POST from OL (possibly using the<image/>  widget)?
I have severe doubts that this is even possible.... am I right?
Thanks a lot,
M.
