Projects and organizations often need to report to clients on progress indicators as part of the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) requirements. Amchart is an excellent tool to include an indicator page in your Joomla empowered website. Below is a list of graphs provided by Amchart, each with their individual xml data and settings files. The data files can be easily maintained by field staff. We also added an upload facility so data files can be uploaded for each graph individually by authorized users - this is especially useful when data needs to be updated and FTP is not an appropriate method.
1: 3d stacked bar chart
2: 3D Stacked column chart
3: Auto-resizing chart
4: amcolumn with a background
5: Column and line chart mix
6: Floating chart
7: Histogram chart
8: Multiple Charts - Two charts with identical settings and different data sets
9: Patterns
10: Value Indicator Plugin
0: Animated chart Current folder: Indidators info
A few things to remember:
- The path to the background image, if any, is set in the data file;
- Some graphs use xml and others txt for data - remember to refer to the right extension in the html;
- You only need one reference to the swfobject.js on a page;
- Do not forget to copy all the files from the amcolumn folders such as the fonts and plugins and patterns, the shockwave flash file and export files;
- Rename each flashcontent file twice for each script;
- The background image path is set in the settings.xml - make sure you only refer to directory where the file is located../name subdirectory/name.jpg - a full path with http:// etc does not work;
- The plugin path is set in the settings.xml - make sure you only refer to directory where the file is located../name subdirectory/name.jpg - a full path with http:// etc does not work;
- The SWFs in graphs' path is set in the data.xml - make sure you only refer to directory where the file is located ../name subdirectory/name.jpg - a full path with http:// etc does not work.
