The February 2005 issue of FoxPro Advisor contains a four page article I wrote on the use of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).
SVG is a free open standard graphics file format and Web development language based on XML. SVG enables Web developers and designers to create dynamically generated, high-quality graphics from real-time data with precise structural and visual control.
With this powerful new technology, SVG developers can create a new generation of Web applications based on data-driven, interactive, and personalized graphics.
To learn more about SVG, see the following great article by Lauren Clarke:
http://www.cornerstonenw.com/randd.htm?&pk=407>I have been asked to review a project. The project was started using Flash, but someone asked me if there were any other options. The Flash object displays an object with a finite number of buttons and depending on what button is pressed and in what order a finite number of messages is displayed in a designated area (not very specific huh <s>). I know I could write this stuff in ASP.NET (or PHP, ASP but think that might be overkill), but I feel Flash is probably the best option for this.
