I would like this to be similar to the following: http://ww

Answer 1

I used this in a php page:

$percent = .....; //whatever the percentage you want to colour

If ($percent <= 50) {
    $red = 255;
    $green = $percent * 5.1;
}

If ($percent >= 50) {
    $green = 255;
    $red = 255 - ($percent - 50) * 5.1;
}

$blue = 0;

Your RGB is then ($red, $green, $blue)

Note: The 5.1 factor dervies from 255/50
