ginerjm Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Exactly what do you mean by "create a chart"? If you want a true Excel chart then you have to send it to the client (ie, download it) with the proper headers which s/b easy to find on google. If you are just looking for an output that looks like a chart then you are probably just looking at some css and html coding. Not sure what you expect.

gizmola Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Search Gooogle for php graphing library. You want to differentiate between serverside graphing, which typically requires GD or ImageMagick. Those libraries create the graph and render it as an image which can be good for caching and data that you want to present at set intervals, or otherwise is useful when you want people to have images they can copy and share easily. This one has been around for quite a while, and is totally free to use. Search Packagist: https://packagist.org/?q=graphing There are numerous javascript graphing libraries, and when you want interactivity these solutions shine. I personally have used and recommend Highcharts, or any of the other graphing libraries from that company but there are many others. Plot.ly is worth looking at as well. If you are doing non-commercial work, many of these offer a free license, but if you have a commercial endeavor you may need a license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
