Thermometer / Goal Graph

Friends Of Scouting (FOS) and many other community / organizational goal setting situations use a big red thermometer to show the current status of the fund raising campaign (and other things). Since we have used this graphic (abet hand drawn) in our council for several years, it made sense to use it on our web site to show the current status of our FOS campaign. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find an "off the shelf" way to generate the graph on the fly. Suggestions were made to "generate it out of Excel" - which would have worked, but would have required editing the Excel spread sheet, generating the graphs and then manually uploading them to the web server or putting the spread sheet on the web server and only letting people who have Excel view it. Neither option seemed like a good alternative.
