        <td valign=top width="5%"><a href="">Help</a></td>
    </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
<script language="JavaScript">
var bg = new Graph(10);

bg.parent = document.getElementById('here');
bg.title = 'Current Top 10 Servers';

bg.yCaption = 'Number of Connetions<br>per Server';

bg.xValues[0] = [188,'Rio de Janeiro'];
