I have a new work project to redesign our internal group web-site, and would like to add some dashboard graphics. For example, a speedometer showing CPU useage, or something along that line. The problem is I have zero knowledge regarding this activity. I have downloaded some jquery apps but have not yet had a chance to investigate them. Then it occurred to me that since Coffecup seems to have everything for web development then maybe they have something I can use.

Does anyone have any suggestions on htis sublect? Thanks for your help.

When you say a speedometer showing CPU usage do you mean live monitoring or maybe a gif image with a needle moving around for a graphical representation?

Well, both of those questions sound like what I am imagining. What I envision is our home page, or some other page, having graphics that are showing realtime items; such as number of current automation jobs running, CPU useage as the jobs run, memory use, etc.

Never having done this maybe I am using the wrong terminalogy to describe what I would like to see.

Something like this.

Can a website even access a user's CPU specs?

I took the post as users logging on to a site and seeing his systems resources not their own.
Here's this also. It doesn't appear to have the graphical interface your looking for.

I imagine a Java Applet could display real time end user system resources.

Hey, maybe that's the real reason SJ won't let Java on his Apple's...

Maybe. He prevents users from doing what they want on all of his over-priced products so it doesn't surprise me in the least. Sounds more and more like M$ to me.

Yes, I realize security is the reason why he cripples his systems. I'd prefer to install and use what I choose on my systems and accept the risk instead of flat out denial.

I can't wait for the popularity to grow even more so more malware target the software. It should be fun.

There's got to be a bunch of hackers out there looking for short comings in Apple products.
