Next week we’ve got a full schedule of EUSP Live Online Workshops. If you haven’t tried one of these before, our format is pretty simple:
Earlier this month, Christophe Humbert led a live online workshop on how to create miniature inline charts and graphs with Sparklines and jQuery.
If you can make immediate use of charts and graphs in your SharePoint site, would it be worth two hours of your time to find out how to do it, no code required? I thought so. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow at 1:00pm EST for SharePoint Charts and Graphs: Part 02 (Sparklines).
The basic functionality within the SharePoint interface is limiting when it comes to presenting graphical information. In a set of live online, upcoming workshops, we will present ways to display information with charts, graphs, and through animations, all without recourse to the server.
I’m teaching on site all this week, so I’m trying to get a handle on who’s doing what when I come home each evening. Here’s the list of events I’ve got for this week. Please add more to the comments section and I’ll update each evening as they come in.
Paul Grenier and I are putting the finishing touches on tomorrow’s SharePoint Charts and Graphs without Excel Services live online workshop. I’m showing a teaser image here so you can see the type of dynamic charts that can be achieved in WSS without recourse to 3rd party web parts or Excel Services. Notice there is more than one chart on the page…
In this three minute screencast, I show how data from a simple SharePoint list can pulled into a Content Editor Web Part to dynamically generate a bar chart. The code for the solution is below the screencast.
When i first saw this solution, my jaw dropped! Could this actually be a viable alternative for WSS users who don’t have Excel Services? You be the judge… please give Claudio some feedback on how you will use his solution.
Christophe at Path to SharePoint is at it again. This guy’s got some really cool stuff going on. In addition to making EndUserSharePoint.com look good, the functionality he is able to produce out of the box is something that deserves a deepdive.
