Name
CFGRAPH — New in ColdFusion 5.0
Synopsis
<CFGRAPH> [<CFGRAPHDATA>] ... </CFGRAPH>
Draws a bar, horizontal bar, line, or pie chart from query and/or
static data. The CFGRAPH tag uses Macromedia
Generator and JRun, both installed when you install ColdFusion, to
handle the graphing. Because the CFGRAPH tag can
graph only numeric data, you must convert any date, time, and
formatted numeric data to integers or real numbers. The
CFGRAPH tag can render graphs in Flash, PNG, and
JPEG formats. Although you can adjust the size of the graph, the
CFGRAPH tag currently maintains a height/width
aspect ratio of 3:4. Changing one aspect without changing the other
accordingly can result in an excess border around your graph. It
should be noted that the CFGRAPH tag isn’t supported when
running ColdFusion on Windows 95/98.
