Open Flash Chart

Open Flash ChartChat, Free Script, FlashOctober 25th, 2007

Open Flash Chart

How does it work?

1. User browses to your web site.
2. The browser downloads the web page which contains the Open Flash Chart.
3. Open Flash Chart downloads the data file and displays the chart.

When you add Open Flash Chart to your web page, you tell it where to find the data file.

Why is that great?
When the user downloads the web page, Open Flash Chart requests the chart data from the server. The server knows who the user is so it can generate a chart for that particular user showing up to the minute data.
