I know I will probably be shot for this, but seriously, the ColdFusion (MX and later, at least) graphing
library is *awesome*.

The best part, is you can supply it with a SQL query and it can generate the graph based on that, including the ability to click (image map or flash) to drill down for more detailed graphs, it's *really* nice.

I can never find a google example online though :/

Btw, seems like ez does support SWF. So it’d be interesting to see how far it goes. For example, if it’s as nice as the Sugar ones.

It’s actually something which has crossed my mind. I believe the ezComponents graphing library depends heavily on gd which has quite a bit of memory leaks and also doesn’t support a Rich interface. For example, take a look at SugarCRM and it’s nice flash graphs in the Dashboard view (http://demo.sugarondemand.com/sugarcrm_ent/ index.php?action=Login&module=Users) – Look for Dashboard.

So I think replicating something like in ez is not really interesting to me but I believe we can do something which would be significantly sexier.

Is there any thought to implement (in a near future) a Zend Graph Component?

I know there are good libraries (jpgraph, postgraph, php/swf charts, ...) but maybe could be a good idea to implement a new one (without reinventing the wheel, of course) but based in the good platform that Zend Framework provides us.
