There's a difference between a graph plotter and a chart plotter: the source data. To me a chart-plotter is fed by a bunch of numbers whereas a graph-plotter is fed by a bunch of functions.
Ah, I see. Well, at least the screen shots from http://vofce.sourceforge.net/ look promising. Although I lived well with GnuPlot for this purpose until now.
That characteristic is probably a very high requirement and is probably the reason why it's mostly only found in more general purpose computer-algebra-systems....
There are a few general purpose CAS written in Java available. (yacas et al, plunder sourceforge as usual). I'm not sure whether any of them has a plotting component. I'd still be very surprised if there isn't even an attempt at a java graph plotter on sourceforge. If not, ripping code off GnuPlot and/or GNU plotutils should be easy enough. :-) You might also ask here (not OSS) http://www.accesscom.com/~lillge/pgc/ or here http://www.pa.uky.edu/~phy211/graph_applets/plot_graph.html or here http://www.rddvs.com/RICHplot.html http://dsaka20.kushiro-ct.ac.jp/~yanto/java/surface/ http://sol.cs.wcu.edu/~par/grapher/GrapherUtility.html or a dozen or so of other websites (making plotting applets must be *really* fun!)
