I think you may still be slightly confuddled as you put it.

To answer this bit, no web page can exist without HTML. HTML which exists in various revisions is the 'bones' of a web page, for a full explanation see 'here'.

PHP is a script that runs server side as opposed to JavaScript that runs in the browser. For PHP take a look 'here' and 'here'.

For JavaScript look 'here'.

So, the simple answer is that Marks site (and most of our sites) would not work without all of the above.

I suggest before attempting the various graph packages you have mentioned that you achieve a basic / better understanding of the above.

Good luck.

1/ Do you actually want to use a MySQL database to produce graphs?
2/ or do you want to produce graph images using php as in 'this' thread?
3/ or do you want to display the graphs (charts) as used in the MX interface on your site?

Thanks for the reply Duke,

The answer is almost certainly number one - produce graphs using MySQL.
However, is number two not also possible with number one, i.e. use php to extract data from MySQL and show this as graphics?

Thanks again

Yes.
