<p>FusionCharts is a copy-n-paste style installation component - that is
to say one does not need to install any external Active-X control or component
to render charts. All you need to do is copy the ready-to-use .swf files
from the download package to your web server.</p>
</span> <p><span class="text">To install FusionCharts on your website, just
copy the required .swf files from <root>
</span><span class="codeInline">Download Package
> Charts </span><span class="text">folder to any folder of your web
application. It is always preferable to keep all these .swf files in a
root folder of your application so that all your scripts can easily access
these chart swf files. </span></p>

<p>You can pull data from any database (or data storage systems) using the
server side script that you're using. Make the server side script to pull
the data and then render it in XML format required by FusionCharts. See
the previous sections of documentation for detailed information on this.

<td valign="bottom"><strong>Can FusionCharts directly consume data from my database instead of XML? </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top" class="text">
<td> </td>
<td>No - FusionCharts cannot directly access any database, as it's based on Flash platform. You'll need to provide data to FusionCharts in XML format only. For this, you'll have to set a middleware script (like ASP, PHP, .NET, ColdFusion, JSP etc.), which would access your database and then build the XML output for FusionCharts. </td>

However, when I use it FusionCharts seems to ignore everything after the

</tr>
<tr> <td> </td>
<td><span Class="text">
<p>The Flash player does not consider the ? and & as a part of querystring
data and as such treats it as another name-pair value. To overcome this,
you'll need to convert all ? and &s to URL Friendly characters (i.e.,
convert the special characters into a % followed by their 2 digit hexadecimal
code).. FusionCharts will automatically correct it for you.</p>
<p>Example: </p>
</span>
<p class="codeInline">data%2Easp%3Fparam1%3Dvalue%26param2%3Dvalue2
would be converted to data.asp?param1=value&param2=value2</p>

<p><b>Code Example:</b></p>
<p class="codeInline"> <OBJECT ... > <br>
<PARAM NAME='Movie' Value='FCF_Column2D.swf'><br>

<p>You'll need to convert all &s to %26.</p>

</strong></td>

<tr valign="top" class="text">
<td> </td>
<td><p>Since Flash doesn't allow loading of XML documents/data from other domains,
it is not directly possible to load data from other domains. However,
a proxy page can do the trick.<br />
<br />
For example, use the following:<span class="codeInline"><br />
<PARAM NAME='Movie' Value='FCF_Column2D.swf?dataURL=Relayer.aspx'></span><br />
Now,<span class="codetext"> Relayer.aspx</span> is the page on your server
which connects to the remote (other domain) data and finally relays it
in XML format (required by FusionCharts).</p></td>

<td><span Class="text">
<p>Yes. With FusionCharts, it's possible to change the font styling properties.
The following attributes of the graph element help you change the font
properties:</p>
<p><span class="codeInline">baseFont="FontName"</span><br>
This attribute sets the base font family of the graph i.e., all the values
and the names in the graph canvas will be displayed using the font name
provided here. </p>
<p><span class="codeInline">baseFontSize="ValidFontSize"</span><br>
This attribute sets the base font size of the graph i.e., all the values
and the names in the graph canvas will be displayed using the font size
provided here.</p>
<p><span class="codeInline">baseFontColor="HexColorWithout#"</span><br>
This attribute sets the base font color of the graph i.e., all the values
and the names in the graph canvas will be displayed using the font color
provided here.</p>
<p><span class="codeInline">outCnvBaseFont="FontName"</span><br>
This attribute sets the outside canvas base font family of the graph i.e.,
all the values and the names outside the graph canvas will be displayed
using the font name provided here. </p>
<p><span class="codeInline">outCnvBaseFontSize="ValidFontSize"</span><br>
This attribute sets the outside canvas base font size of the graph i.e.,
all the values and the names outside the graph canvas will be displayed
using the font size provided here.</p>
<p><span class="codeInline">outCnvBaseFontColor="HexColorWithout#"</span><br>
This attribute sets the outside canvas base font color of the graph i.e.,
all the values and the names outside the graph canvas will be displayed
using the font color provided here.</p>
</span> <p><span class="text">Example: </span><span class="codeInline"><graph basefont='Verdana' bastfontsize='10'

<p>Hover caption box's background color<br>

<p class="codeInline"> <param name="WMode" value="Transparent"></p>
<p>In order to support Mozilla-based browsers and other browsers, such as Safari, you should also include the wmode parameter in the <span class="codeInline"><embed></span> tag, like this: </p>
<p class="codeInline"><embed wmode="transparent" .......></embed></p>
