Hii,
I'm trying to get a script that can be used with a start position and an end position to draw a straight line between these coordinates.
I've already looked at http://www.walterzorn.com/
Cheers

bjawnie, if need more complex graphics then straight lines, DHTML is just not the way, although you might be able to find workarounds, it will be complicated and will probably have different performances and cross-browser support issues.
VML as of now is supproted by IE only (example : http://www.xtls.de/vml-3d/
SVG is depended on an adobe-plugin (just like flash) and is supported by both browsers (http://www.diversitas.org
Few helpful sites :
SVG :
http://www.svgelves.com/le
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/
http://www.adobe.com/svg/m
http://www.mozilla.org/pro
VML :

No. I never done any SVG.
But it's very simple to learn (as it's XML , everything is very much straight forward :
Here is a single line code :
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<svg width="400" height="300">
<line x1="100" y1="30" x2="350" y2="280"
style="stroke :#00FF00; stroke-width :3 ;
stroke-opacity :0.4;"/>
</svg>
Save in file as "filname.svg" and load in mozilla or IE .
All I see is some XML code.

Also there's a similar way to do what anver say, it's something like a html implemented with xml, so your server don't need extra mime-types. Here's a sample:
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-micro
<head>
<object id="VMLRender" classid="CLSID:10072CEC-8C
</object>
<style>
v\:* { behavior: url(#VMLRender); }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<v:line from="10 20" to="40 150" opacity="1.0" stroke="true" strokecolor="black" strokeweight="1" fill="true" fillcolor="white" print="true" />
</body>
</html>
You can modify it dinamically with javascript. Take a look at http://www.microsoft.com/m
Hope that help

Althought the answer to the question is no way, unless bjawnie want to work with a lot of code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div id="a" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="b" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="c" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="d" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="e" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="f" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="g" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="h" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="i" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="j" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="k" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="l" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="c" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="d" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="e" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="f" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="g" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="h" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="i" style="position:absolute;t
<div id="j" style="position:absolute;t
</body>
</html>
And I still not sure about if new NSN versions can set the position absolute.

If you want only a line use :
<hr style="border:solid 1px black"/>
If you want to draw complex graphics , use VML or SVG .
(search in google for both topics you'll find all the info you need).
