Hi All

New to Graphics and certainly new to graphics in a browser.
Using IIS 6.0, .Net 3.5, Visual Studio 2008, C#

I need to be able to draw onto a browser to create a process map.
This will contain, boxes, circles, lines and text (I am hoping that
the phrase 'A Simple Process Map' turns out to be just that).

The users will be using IE only so it does not have to be cross
browser.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good tutorial/Example site
and
possibly offer sound advice as to how I can do what I need to do

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Regards

Iain

You can't "draw onto a browser." You can create an image and serve that
image TO the browser, but that's all.

Today I think you will need to embed a plugin:
Java applet, Flash, SilverLigth.

(I have a drawing Java applet on the shelf)

With HTML 5 you should be able to do it all
in JavaScript and canvas. But you will have to
wait for IE9 or IE10 for that.

Doing it with JavaScript pre-HTML 5 may be possible
using super heavy AJAX, but I would not be
tempted for that solution.

Hi All

Thanks to those of you who replied.

I have discovered the asp:imagemap and I think this is the way to go.

Thanks for all the advice
