Hi Ross,
I'm certainly willing to take a look at it. I will eventually
chose one (forrest, fins, ....)
I have another possibility outside cocoon, and that is using the
R language on my postgres database.
For now, I would like to go with Cocoon, if it is fast enough,
because I can re-use my existing xml descriptions of the pages
(the graphs are the same as the pages, but graphical)
Forrest may help here too since it is a Cocoon based application
(see below).
Hmm, I'm not so sure that Forrest will help me much. Forrest seems like
a way to render content (xml, ...) into webpages.

All of that is rendered into a report which navigation

So, I guess Forrest is not what I'm looking for in this case.
Although I use the same techniques.
I'm sorry, I don't understand. You have an XML file and you need to
render it as a report. That is *exactly* what Forrest does (as a
website, a PDF, CSV, Spreadsheet or whatever you need).
However, I'm not necessarily advocating Forrest for your case, only
mentioning that it may help. Whether it does or not is up to you, I
don't know enough about your use case. What I can tell you is that I
have a Forrest app reading content from live sensor readings in an RDMS
and creating reports from that data, complete with graphs. I think that
is what you are trying to do here.
Even if I have misundersttod your use case I believe you *will*
certainly find the the Charts plugin useful since it contains everything
you need to embed JCharts (a graphs/charting package) into a Cocoon app.
Isn't that what you wanted?
Ross
