    In 3D

    My client wants me to come up with some 3D charts for some web based reports. So I have two questions...

    I've only ever used MSChart to make charts. Are there other ActiveX Controls that I can use to make 3D charts?

    Using HTML and CSS I can make regular (rectanglar) shapes on a page. Is there a way to make irregular parrellagrams? With that I could make 3D blocks as least with just the web browsers.

    Have to use ASP with VBScript.

    I would love to learn PHP, but nope. They don't want that.

    Could always use SVG. Of course a plug-in is needed.

    Have you looked at using SVG to make the charts at all? I'm sure you could do it, but it'd require maybe too much work and for the clients to have a viewer installed.

    No, no viewer. Right now with MSChart I just have a DLL make the image and save it server side and convert it to a jpeg.

    Someone recommended See It (?). I can't do a search at Google since it won't search for "See It" just "See".
