+Also, if you see something like: +

+WebDot Error:

+Response Code = 403
+

+This usually means that webdot ran succesfully, but was not able +to fetch the remote graph from the URL you gave as an argument. +The reason is probably that your server is behind a firewall that +blocks the webdot server, so it cannot get the graph file. +You can either change firewall permissions, put the graph on a +different server, or install webdot locally so you don't need a +remote server to fetch your graph data. +

+It would be nice if someone hacked webdot to take the contents +of a graph as a cgi-bin argument, so it wouldn't need +permission to fetch a graph remotely. +This is left as an exercise for the Open Source Community. +

Q. I have "Font not found" errors, or text labels missing in webdot.
