Hi, Whenever I install the plugin, I get a warning that there are header errors upon activation, then I get server errors when I try to embed the shortcode in your tutorials into a post. The initial error I get on two different WordPress sites is: — The plugin generated 3 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin. — Please help. Cheers, Sam http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vixo-embeddable-tables-charts-and-spreadsheets/ Fixed the activation bugs and pushed a new version of the plugin – it was a simple whitespace problem that I should have picked up on. You say you are getting server errors on the examples. Can you give me some more details? Are theyL * Vixo server errors * WordPress server errors * page not found notices * etc, etc Thank-you for the quick fix – excellent! The other error message I was getting was a WordPress header feed error. But this has been fixed since you sorted out the whitespace in the plugin. Thanks. One more question – I would like to create a form that calculates a user’s input, and then shows that in a chart right underneath the result. The form is like the one linked below. Can you let me know if this is possible within your WordPress plugin? http://www.tfaforms.com/274178 Cheers, Sam Absolutely What you want is a form of calculator. There is a calculator HOWTO on the plugin site: http://wordpress.vixo.com/building-a-calculator-or-quote-engine/ When you build the calculator you can add a graph to it (just like in a spreadsheet). Have a go with the HOWTO and if you hit any problems get back to me. Excellent – thank-you, I’ll have a go.
