[Mapserver-users] plotting charts on Maps

One available way to do this is to display the map image as the background 
in an html table cell then display the chart in the cell itself...here's a 
very basic example...

<table><tr><td background="mymap.png"><img src="mychart.gif"></td></tr></table>

There will be issues with sizing though and you would need to ensure both 
images are the same size...for example if the map image is 500x250pixels 
and your chart image is only 250x250pixels then the only the area the size 
of the chart image would be displayed.

Hope that helps a little.
