I hope I get a good answer from developers like me, Can anyone teach me or maybe the basics on how to create a graph using the open flash chart library of OpenEMR 4.1.1, are can any developer just give me the basics on making a graph… ASAP… This is for my school…  so it would be of great honor if someone could teach me just the basic …

Thanks :slight_smile:

You are funny! "YES, I got the assignment tomorrow and the results have to show today!"

Seems like I hear te voices again when I was a student, goingkkkkkkkkclnggg back in time!

Take a MSExcell spreadsheet en fill in the names and fill in the values and let MSExcell make a graph! This is easiest and quickest.

All other graphs are easy but need some digging into Open-ENMR.

Best way to go is Vitals!..…… Fill in values of all your friends for a couple of years and let Open-EMR make the graphs.

This is an open FORUM, so the MASTER has seen this answer too!!! Be aware.

I do not know anything about open flash card library. But within Open-EMR all programming information is as open as can be and you might find the right example. Let us know when you graduate, we might be in need of your software skills!

Hi insignia921,

blankev is correct to focus on the vitals and to follow the code. To further help you out, here’s some more info:

Here’s the script that builds the chart:
library/openflashchart/graphs.php

And here’s the script that calls the above script via an ajax request and shows the chart:
interface/patient_file/encounter/trend_form.php
