Actually, what we should do is put a 'History' page off that main one that expands that chart to include the previous two or three months, as well as this one ... would be easier/faster to implement then a graph too ... Antony? Have a couple of minutes to whip that together? Maybe do it similar to the countries page, but instead of listing countries, list month/year? maybe go back 6 months? - ---- Marc G.
