I have used KavaCharts by Visual Engineering. You can check them out at:
http://www.ve.com/kavachart/index.html
It is a collection of applets that you can embed and use CF to populate the name/value
pairs. This is how we used and it worked great. Also included are servlets so if you
have a
Java-enabled webserver, you can serve up .gif images generated on the fly (they can
even be cached for repeitive queries). The price is good too (free :) for use on web
pages. If
you want the java code to use in your own java applications, you can buy the $300 SDK,
but it's not necessary for use on a website. We did end up buying it, however, so
that we could
get rid of the "credits" that appear when you click on a chart. Their support was
also excellent when I did have a problem.
