php的生成条形图
由于overwhelmning为广东的需求有关的例子，这个最重要的是产生从一个数组条形图要
求。当然，这些可以很容易地从任何来源数目，以及投入到一个数组
// create an array of values for the chart. These values
// could come from anywhere, POST, GET, database etc.
$values = array(23,32,35,57,12,3,36,54,32,15,43,24,30);
// now we get the number of values in the array. this will
// tell us how many columns to plot
$columns = count($values);

// set the height and width of the graph image
$width = 300;
$height = 200;
// Set the amount of space between each column
$padding = 5;
// Get the width of 1 column
$column_width = $width / $columns ;
图书《网页制作与PHP语言应用》，由武汉大学出版社于2006出版，该书为普通高等院校网络传播系列教材之一，主要阐述了网页制作的基础知识与实践，以及PHP语言在网络传播中的应用。该书内容涉及：HTML基础知识、PHP的基本语法、PHP程序中的常用函数、数据库软件MySQL的基本操作、网页加密和身份验证、动态生成图像、MySQL与多媒体素材库的建设等。
// set the graph color variables
$im = imagecreate($width,$height);
$gray = imagecolorallocate ($im,0xcc,0xcc,0xcc);
$gray_lite = imagecolorallocate ($im,0xee,0xee,0xee);
$gray_dark = imagecolorallocate ($im,0x7f,0x7f,0x7f);
$white = imagecolorallocate ($im,0xff,0xff,0xff);
// set the background color of the graph
imagefilledrectangle($im,0,0,$width,$height,$white);
// Calculate the maximum value we are going to plot
$max_value = max($values);
// loop over the array of columns
for($i=0;$i {
// set the column hieght for each value
$column_height = ($height / 100) * (( $values[$i] / $max_value)
*100);
// now the coords
$x1 = $i*$column_width;
$y1 = $height-$column_height;
$x2 = (($i+1)*$column_width)-$padding;
$y2 = $height;
// write the columns over the background
imagefilledrectangle($im,$x1,$y1,$x2,$y2,$gray);
// This gives the columns a little 3d effect
imageline($im,$x1,$y1,$x1,$y2,$gray_lite);
imageline($im,$x1,$y2,$x2,$y2,$gray_lite);
imageline($im,$x2,$y1,$x2,$y2,$gray_dark);
}
// set the correct png headers
header ("Content-type: image/png");
// spit the image out the other end
imagepng($im);
