Chapter 1
Welcome to the PopChart Examples book. This book contains examples of charts and graphs that you can make with PopChart Xpress, PopChart Builder, and PopChart Server. Each example contains step by step instructions on how to build the graph in PopChart Xpress or PopChart Builder, along with data in several formats that you can use dynamically with PopChart Server.
The contents of this book are also provided in HTML in the examples/html/popchart_examples directory of your PopChart installation. The benefit of the HTML examples is that you can interact with them and see how the graphs will look in an actual web environment. If you have installed PopChart Server, the examples will even be dynamically generated by PopChart Server, so that you can get a feel for how PopChart Server works.
If you are new to PopChart and want to learn how to use it, you should refer to either the PopChart Quick Start manual or the PopChart Server User Guide. If you are looking for a reference on PopChart's commands, the PopChartEmbedder APIs, or other specifications, you should refer to the PopChart Server Reference manual.
