We have done this, but it's very involved. The application produces a
lot of
javascript code that maps datapoints to very small gifs that show up as
different colors.
Another way is to produce html that has the gifs embedded; do not put
line feeds between
the <IMG> tags, or you will get a tiny little white space between each
gif. This
will yield slower performance than dynamic html, but will run.
The screen took well over a month to develop, but could be adapted to
your situation.
Let me know if interested.
