Administrative Functions (Cont) - There is
also another link to change the
background/foreground of the chart view

XSL, you have easy access to the XSL and CSS to
format the chart.

simple open source application that can easily be
customized by you. For example, by writing a
couple of lines, you can display the tree in the
left frame, and in the right frame you can
display "Full", "3 Level" or "Matrix" chart. -
There are some simple examples at the end of
default.htm page to show you how you can show the
chart in the different formats and how you can
connect this application to your other HR
applications.

- Additional technical information
Software requirement - Web Organization Chart
is running under IIS, Asp. You also need to have
ADODB installed on the IIS server. On the client
side you need to have IE 5.5.
Configuring the chart To change the chart
setting, or to point to a different database, you
need to modify setting.asp page.
HR data requirement - Web Organization Chart
needs two fields in the HR table to represent
both a unique employee ID and unique manager ID.
By using these two fields, the chart is created.
14
- Additional technical information
Pointing to the database - Web Organization
Chart uses either dsn, filedsn, dsnless or any
connection string accepted by ADODB to open the
database. - If you can not open the database you
need to change the connection string in the
setting.asp. - To make sure your connection
string is fine, there is an asp page (called
TestConnection.asp) packaged with the
application. This is a simple asp page using
connection string to connect to the database. If
you can connect TestConnection.asp to the
database you can use the same connection string
for setting.asp - Within setting.asp you can
modify the list of fields that you would like to
display, the order of the employees, and some
other options. - For more information read the
help document.
