Trying to use google charts with dompdf!

[Jack sowden]

I have been trying for ages now to get a dynamic graph of some kind
working with dompdf, but not haveing much look.

The easyeist way I can think of implmenting this is to use google
charts, but when I include the following code it stopps the pdf been
created for some reason.

<img src="http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=250x100&chd=t:
60,40&cht=p3&chl=Hello|World">

The same image path works in other php pdf creators but I need to use
dompdf for its inline php capabilitys.

Any help would be greatfully recived.

I have solved the problem!

It was happerning due to me testing on my local server on my laptop.

When I tryed it on my server it worked fine.

So what was the problem? Lack of an internet connection?

There are many PHP graphic libraries available[0], take your pick -
personally I'd go for ImageMagick - it's a lot more flexible, it's OO
along with many other wins.

This kind of URL doesn't work in the current stable release (0.5.1).
The upcoming release should be able to handle it, so you might want to
try 0.5.2 alpha 1.
