I'm working with another (very unusual) webserver on our intranet.  When I
wanted to do graphs recently I settled on an XML output from my other
server, and a PHP routine on apache that produces the graph.

The other server references the PHP which outputs a .png sending enough
information to that routine to request XML from the first server.  Our
applications are not heavily used, but this works well, and I will probably
use it to create other forms of output as well.

Subject: Re: [PHP] Document generation from XML


I had exactly the same problem some time ago...  My solution was very 
similiar of what you are trying to do, but my "internal" format is not 
XML but a group of arrays (faster processing).  Then using some OOP I 
created the diferent "output formats" for my reports, therefore I have a 
microsoft excel object, a pdf object, a html, an xml object, etc.  (you 
get the idea).
