Here are some tips for serving generated SVG: http://www.pinkjuice.com/howto/RubySVG/ Most points should be quite parallel to Perl. Here are some simple examples, using Ruby (a Japanese language similiar to Python): http://www.pinkjuice.com/howto/RubySVG/examples.xhtml Here's an example which combines a skeleton, a layout template, an SVG Font, and data from an RSS feed: http://www.pinkjuice.com/howto/RubySVG/examples.xhtml#examples_osource_news Other options for generating SVG are XSLT http://www.schemasoft.com/gcatools/gca2html/Output/05-05-02.html SVG.pm http://www.roasp.com/ Batik http://xml.apache.org/batik/svggen.html and any other technology that can manipulate text, better XML, best SVG.
