[Anthill-pro] Bar chart report fails to display using URL outside of AHP

[Ryan Smith]

Peter,

The chart images are created on request as part of the page, so they are 
not available independently. A custom report on the reporting tab could 
be used to create reports with that data in them. They would also have a 
direct URL.
