That's really cool Robby, actually I am trying to do something similar. What I need to do is embed clickable links into the SVG image so that the users can then go to the details page of the item they clicked on. Problem is that I'm using JGraph to do the layout of the graph and I have absolutely no clue on how to pass the link data on through the layouting. Could you point me in the right direction for this? Also the animation stuff sounds cool, do you have some good resources about that topic?
Thanks for the help everybody, I'll try that as soon as possible ^^ Regards, Chris -- Christian Decker Software Architect http://blog.snyke.net On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 11:27 AM, Robby Pelssers <[email protected]>wrote: > And here's my response ;-) I posted it on the blog as well. > > > "If the images do not require animation you can just serialize the > images to png or jpeg for instance.
