Rebolek: tell me why?

Reichart, Rebin won't make REBOL run faster internally, but it would 
improve the storage and transmittal of REBOL data, so things like 
/Services would be faster. Internally REBOL is already fast.

I know most people here are still treating SaaS as a red headed step 
child…but guys, it IS what is happening…  : )

They got to it before Richard and I could complete ours, and given 
there license (don't worry about it if you use it less than 250K 
times a day!), we are probably just going to support it directly.


How about writing a REBOL interface that lets you test it first, 
then out puts Google compatible REST?


Even without Google Charts, it is a stand alone useful program, but 
WITH Google, it might get noticed by the public.


One should be able to whip this together quickly, and it would be 
a useful simple report component everyone could use.

that was released quite a while ago wasn't it?

I didn't think it could do time series ...so I didn't persue it.

It gets better, all the time...Google has a habit of that...

can't see that they do it yet

Point me to a graph on the web that looks like what you want.  I'm 
planning to use them, but clearly, there are things they don't do, 
and I plan to do that in REBOL, but use the same trick.

This is what I have at present.  https://www.compkarori.co.nz.. 
login as guest/1234 select results/laborator and click on any of 
the results to bring up a graph at the bottom of the page.

Cool stuff (wow, what a CAPTCHA! LOL)

So for example,

You want to hand it:

A range - 60 to 100 mmHg for example.
A bunch of data (dates with values)


I would have to study Google.Graphs, but it seems they allow this.

that's Nenad's captch library at work.

It's bundled with Cheyenne I think.

Most graphing programs aren't smart enough to deal with dates and 
values ....

most free ones ...

I had to write my own in postscript http://synapse-images.s3.amazonaws.com/73C55E9348E30B2419011E4D87DDCDCE.pdf

ie. I used Rebol to generate the postscript graphs

Just so I'm clear, what is missing from this: http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=lc&chs=200x100&chd=s:frothsmzndyoteepngenfrothsmzndyoteepngen&chxt=x,y&chxl=0:|Apr|May|June|1:||50+Kb

Not sure what I'm seeing.  I get an endless wait.

There's a line graph with 3 months on the x-axis.

what I want to do is feed date data and let the graph program automatically 
generate the x-axis labels.

Hmmm....I'm not familiar with Google Graph yet enough to confirm.

But...this is another one of those areas we are starting to play 
with.  I really like thier basic method, although, SOAP might be 
nice so one can work in something more like XML

Does google expect you to supply the x-axis labels and spaces them 
evenly ?

That is what I was just studying...

This is what I am using now http://www.ejschart.com/

Very cool.

I looked at it a long time ago.

Is there a problem with google generating images with a https website? 
 You'll get all those annoying messages about mixed content

well, at least with IE.

Yeah, true, interesting...

Which is why I switched to hosting yahoo's libraries rather than 
using their servers

So, using google graphs is not an option for me.

Interesting...

I need the files (6 years old, gone even in the waybackmachine.org) 
that I posted here: http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/ml-display-message.r?m=rmlBCNJ


Anybody has the-vault.zip and can mail it to me? That would be really 
appreciated!!!!

Done.

Public thanks ;-)

is R3 blog down? Or is it just me?

I get: ** Script Error: Cannot use add on block! value ** Where: 
do-cgi ** Near: blog-count: 1 + any [attempt [load blog-counter] 
0]

Isn't that an old bug?

presumably load blog-counter => [ ] and causing the error

probably run out of disk space

Well, didn't found the group Security, so writing here.

I am thinking of solution, where to user is sent e-mail with attached 
 rebol file, that contains simple form with with some data, that 
user opens add some his data and push the button to send back.

I like this solution because it works just on e-mail, that is very 
common to ordinary people, no needs to make additional installations 
except Rebol and that do not wory about new versions of forms, because 
it always is sent again.
So the qestion that arises is it good from the point of security?
The target systems for this solution would be the Windows.

BTW: How to replace security messages ? I would like to show those 
messages in language of target users?

It seems for me that it could be done by using those startup scrips 
user.r a.o.

the yes/allow requesters can't be replaced in R2, AFAIK.

Imagine changing security requester by intentionally translating 
it incorrectly :-)

when I wrote about it - I already started to think about  - then 
I need to teach to mu users few english words - seems better
;-)

I do wish it would behave better. Too often it does not appear in 
front of other windows or hides in the upper left corner. It seems 
quite random where it chooses to sit.

... and also the window is rather primitive ... e.g. with some file 
security requestor, if the file path is too long, it does not fit 
the screen and does not allow you to scroll :-)

Anyone know if R2 runs on OpenSolaris ?
