I am new to the mailing list and to PostgreSQL. 

I am currently running PostgreSQL 9.0.4 on a Windows XP laptop. 

I am successfully logging sensor data to a database (temperature, humidity, 
voltage, etc…), I would like to display the data in a chart on a web site. 
Currently I am have everything on the same Windows system, PostgreSQL, data 
acquisition system, Apache Web server, pgAdmin III, and pgAgent.

I am updating the database with a csv file (generated by the data acquisition 
system) with the COPY command in an SQL script (updates every minute via SQL 
script and pgAgent). Not the best way, but it works for now.

I would like to use something simple (if there is such a thing) to show a chart 
of sensor output over time base on a SQL query, e.g. hourly average past 24 
hrs, daily average, weekly average, etc… The system is on a local network that 
should not be accessible from the outside network, behind a firewall with net10 
address. Because some use Macs and iPads, I can't use a Flash based product, 
eliminating some options. 

I have looked a number of charting "products", mostly based off of a google 
search and this page: http://webtecker.com/2008/06/12/10-free-chart-scripts/

The charting "products" include the following:

Flot, Open Flash Chart, AmCharts, Emprise JavaScript Charts, PlotKit, Flotr, 
PHP/SWF Charts, Visifire, FusionCharts, and JFreeChart. 

I appreciate any help in pointing me toward a solution and/or recommendations 
for how to graphically display sensor data over time.

Regards,
Greg Howard
