Re: [PHP] Canvas examples

That's very cool, Richard. Well, thanks, but I wouldn't call it "very cool". Now a graphing library that output the results using a canvas, thus negating the need for JPGraph would definitely be nice. Or you could just use JPGraph and get to the pub earlier... :-) -- Richard Heyes

Must be a windozes thing. :-) I guess so. PrintScr takes a snapshot of the current screen, ie a screenshot and places it on the clipboard. Then you simply paste into something like Paint and save it. -- Richard Heyes Employ me: http://www.phpguru.org/cv +--
