I'm looking for a method to plot graphic lines and text for a bracket-like
display with multiple tiers in a browser. I'm familiar with GD for
outputting dynamic graphics, but have never utilized its native drawing
capabilities. Is it well-suited for this task? Any better alternatives?
Thanks.

It's fine for that purpose (heck, that's why it was made ;))
You could also try experimenting with generating flash, as that will give
you a vector graphic, which obviously resizes a lot better...

I'm also considering DHTML, which would me to combine graphic rules and form

why would you want to do that? :)
there are other options, like the <canvas> tag in ffx, and SVG, u
should check that too

I am not sure if it is what you want but there is JpGraph at http://www.aditus.nu/jpgraph/
Have a look.

I need to create a visual display linking different form elements together
using graphic rules. One form element relates to another hieratically. The
display would be generated dynamically and DHTML seems like the fastest and
most efficient way to go about it.

Thanks, but I'm beginning to think that generating bitmap graphics is
unnecessary and not flexible enough for my intended purpose.

You're right although no matter what approach one takes you always run the
risk of excluding somebody. It's true with browsers AND life. :-) This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |
