Embeded flow chart?

Post by rxsid »

Hi all,

I'd like to view a flow chart in a web page. If server side scripting is needed, I could use PHP (preferably) or PERL. What I have right now is a Visio (2003) file, basically it's a geneology tree. Pretty simple, and only needs to be viewable...potentially downloadable (i.e. save a copy).

How could I view/embed a Visio diagram in a browser?

Thanks!

Have Visio safe it to an image. Easiest to implement, no scripting required.

excellent idea. thanks for the reply feyd!

if i wanted to make this flow chart interactive, say...if a user clicked on a box on the chart, it would take them to another flow chart. i suppose the work/coding necessary to make that happen with a Visio diagram just isn't work it? what do you think?

Thanks.

It wouldn't work in the Visio lets you interact with it, but you could use an image map.
