The jfreechart book is well worth the expense. And it is supporting the efforts of the developers. Note that it is not subject to per-user license fees or anything, so it is an annual fee (assuming you care to update to the latest docs every year) that gives you unlimited use, including source c

I've seen the light. =) I won't jump to javascript charting just yet--although it looks nice and interaction is great, I don't have the time and it's not required. Besides, the feeling I get is that I'd probably want to upgrade to Tap 4.1.something before diving into dojo integration. It was ver

We use JFreeChart, for both J2EE and Tapestry applications, and I must say its really simple to use. getting it to work in Tapestry took me a few days though because I didn't know the framework very well, in the end it needed a ridiculous amount of code (4 lines or so). I used the outputstream

I use Fushion Charts. http://www.fusioncharts.com You have to buy it but it's not too expensive. It generates charts on the client from xml using flash. It's easy to use and does not put much load on the server. You can also animate the graphs and connect the html on the page so the graph can be

If I had more duplicate versions of myself and time I'd definitely use this for charting: http://archive.dojotoolkit.org/nightly/tests/charting/test_engine.html The graphics are all rendered in the native format of whatever browser you are viewing them in, and are completely interactive as demon

Hi Last time I needed charting I used http://www.liquidx.net/plotkit/. With it and some javascript glue code the only thing you need to do, is to render tables with the corresponding values. Its probably not the most sufficticated solution but it is quite easy to use. kind regards,

I am thinking of re-writing jCharts enough to get the functionality/flexibility I want, but I wanted to hear from the list first. (Specifically, I want to make Chart implement Serializable and allow jCharts to directly accept data in datatypes other than double[][] ) Sorry, I meant "I want to ma

Hi, I wanted to get an idea of what Tapestry people have settled on when charts needed to be drawn. The Tap 3 and 4 workbenches use JCharts, which had become Krysalis Jcharts, which has been abandoned. I recently played with it and found it to be a lightweight and fast, although it lacks some thi
