Answer 3

FYI there are plenty of Google Chart API wrapper APIs that will make your life easier in terms of dealing with low-level Google Chart API details. I wrote one the Java side (called charts4j). But there is also at least one wrapper API in the .NET arena.

I am not completely familiar with the ASP .Net stack, but you will probably want to generate the the Google Chart URL server side, and display that URL with your HTML view technology in an image tag. The alternative is to pass the data to the browser and construct the chart URL with javascript, but this is likely to be more tedious and error prone. Hope that helps.
