Okay, so this is a bit better: What we are looking at here is an interesting mix of stuff from Ely Greenfields Flex Charting blog. Ely is the guy who wrote Flex Charts so his site is a first stop if you are considering using the charting controls. There are two things going on here, [...]

Does this look familiar? Looks bad I think, but this is work in progress. I will post this code up as soon as I finalise the look and feel. I think I will take out the text as doesn’t look very good. Here is a first look at flexTraffic. Note the sliding panels. None of [...]
