I hate that code too. because it destroys my browser history. Often I want to use the BACK button to get back to where I was before. Greedy sites that use such code prevent me from getting back.

This depends on what is in the object module at the time the script loads. Scripts can not see dynamic changes made to web pages, unless the script is keeping track of the changes it makes itself.

HTML can't do that. It can't do anything but display web pages. The only way it can display a graph is if the graph is in an image file. Why do you want HTML?

You need Microsoft Office instead....
