iguanaChart

Providing charts to web pages using the latest technology...

iguanaChart is not a product -- not yet. It is an experiment and demonstration of the convergence of some emerging technology topics, among them: XHTML, SVG, Ajax, and service oriented architecture (SOA). The pages outlined below address these topics and attempt to illustrate how these markups and approaches may provide for a dynamic, low-cost, integrated approach for incorporating analytical graphics in web pages.

The original intent of the iguanaChart project was to propose an extension to the RSS format to allow for the delivery of charts and graphs to a specialized RSS reader. The idea has evolved into an experimental mechanism for delivering dynamic charts to web pages. See the topics below and learn more about iguanaChart.
