Hi how would you like to create a graph of swine flu cases growth over time for Australia? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:19, 30 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Do you mean like the one on Talk:2009 swine flu outbreak timeline ? 70.29.208.129 (talk) 08:44, 30 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes that would be a possible example, The graph could show the Australian total, and the Victorian total increasing with date.  Figures could come from: http://www.healthemergency.gov.au/internet/healthemergency/publishing.nsf/Content/updates and it sub pages. Another one could be vertical bars that an example is at File:H1N1 virus infection in Mexico 2009-05-06.gif Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:52, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

That look OK, I wonder can we shrink it in a transcluded box in a div? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:25, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * How small do you want it? 70.29.208.129 (talk) 10:41, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The big size is good when someone clicks on it, but for inclusion in the article, about one third of the width of the screen is good. It looks much more realistic now with the actual data.  Perhaps the numeric figures should be in a column next to the date and not on top of the bars. I attempted experiments on trying to shrink the overall graph, while keeping the numbers, but they were all failures. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:36, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure you can have a click-on expand. That would require a CSS or JavaScript element, containing the large-size graph, or dynamic element having the timeline parameters change. I don't know if ① &lt;timeline&gt; supports such dynamic changes or embedding or ② Wikipedia supports such elements. 70.29.208.129 (talk) 09:35, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
