Area Graph Examples

Applet Example 2

Here the graph applet is configured to read the configuration data from the HTML <PARAM> tags and to acquire the graph data from a text file.

 

The graph data is acquired from the text file areadata.txt ( click here to view ) and the graph properties are set by the following HTML code,

For a full explanation of and range of values for the above parameters please see the Documentation.

Note: If you are using the evaluation version then in the applet a pop-up window will appear upon the startup and an evaluation message will be incorporated by the servlet. Both these features have been removed from the licensed version. Licensing information can be found at http://www.jpowered.com/graph_chart/index.htm
