"Interactive" graphs -
Perhaps this belongs on the CGI forum, but I'm not sure.
I'm searching for a way to create an on-the-fly plotted graph.
The user needs to be able to input the X & Y values. Submitting these results would return a plotted graph (no lines). I'm sure the ability to plot more than one XY value at a time is preferred, but if not, we'll take what we can get.
Has anyone seen anything like this?
Thanks in advance!

The best way for that may be a java applet, but there is probably a way with CGI. I'm not sure it can be done with JavaScript or not, I haven't tried plotting points- but it seems possible if you use style sheets and JavaScript, and use a new window to display the graph.
You might look for something along these lines at one of these sites:

I might make an attempt at it with JS and style sheets if I get some spare time- but hopefully someone here has something like this already.
