Hi,  P.Romero,
Please let me know if you get this working.   I am trying to do the same
type of 2 axes bar chart.  but I got error message.
I am using regular  bar ().
the following is the email i sent a week ago.   Eric, I did use the twinx(),
but it gave errors.

thanks in advance.

Hi, everyone,
I am a matplotlib beginner.  I am trying to do a chart with 2 y axes using
twinx()
I keep getting error message  "malformed header from script. Bad header=
is masked in one or more l: test.cgi"  when I do two bar charts on two
axes.  if I do one bar chart and one line chart, I wouldnt get the error.
if I refresh the web page, the chart would show up.
the following is my code.

        ...
        ax = self.fig.add_axes( self.rectMain, axisbg=self.axesBG)
        ticks = self.setTickInterval( 10, 0, buybackDataobj.sharesMax)
        ind = na.array(range(len(buybackDataobj.quarters)))
        majorFormatter = FormatStrFormatter('%2.1f')
        ax.yaxis.set_major_locator(MultipleLocator( ticks ) )
        ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(majorFormatter)
         bar(ind, buybackDataobj.shares, self.barwidth,
color=self.draw.color['DarkGreen'] )

        t = arange(0, float(buybackDataobj.sharesMax), ticks )
        ax.set_ylim(0, buybackDataobj.sharesMax * 1.1)
        ax.set_xlim(0, ind[-1] + self.barwidth*2)
        ax.set_ylabel("Value Bought " + buybackDataobj.scale, fontsize =
self.fontsize )

        ax.set_xticks(ind + self.barwidth)

        ax.set_xticklabels( buybackDataobj.quarters, fontsize =
self.fontsize)
        setp( ax.get_xticklabels(), rotation = self.rotation,
horizontalalignment='center', family=
'sans-serif', fontsize = self.xaxisfs )

             if buybackDataobj.charttype == 'sells':

                ax2 = twinx()
                #ax2.plot(ind + self.barwidth/2, buybackDataobj.sells,
ls='-', marker ='.', ms=11, c='#FF3300')  //  I wouldnt get the error
message if I do this
plot

                bar(ind + self.barwidth, buybackDataobj.sells,
self.barwidth, color='#FF3300' )  // malformed header from script. Bad
header=    is masked in one or more l: test.cgi
                ax2.set_xticklabels(buybackDataobj.quarters, visible=False )
                ax2.set_ylim(buybackDataobj.sellsMin * 0.75,
buybackDataobj.sellsMax * 1.1)
                ax2.set_ylabel("Insider Selling $" +
buybackDataobj.sellsScale, verticalalignment='center', fontsize =
self.fontsize)

                setp( ax2.get_yticklabels(), rotation = 0,
horizontalalignment='left', family='sans-serif', fontsize=self.fontsize )
