Question

Can anybody suggest nice cross browser jQuery API plugin for developing Chart application

except like filamentgroup.com.

The API should be customizible.I want to integrate it in ASP.NET. (ofcourse ASP.NET 3.5 comes with inbuilt Chart control,I want some nice jQuery Plugins).

Was it helpful?

Solution

I've used these with success (customizable, cross-browser, etc):

Others I've come across:

OTHER TIPS

I am surprised that no one has mentioned HighCharts.

Highcharts is a comprehensive library of Javascript charting based on Jquery.

One option is jquery-visualize, which graphs data from a regular HTML table, so it degrades nicely without javascript

Some examples, and an article about it:

Accessible data visualization in HTML has always been tricky to achieve, particularly because elements such as images allow only the most basic features for providing textual information to non-visual users. A while back, we wrote an article describing a technique we came up with to use JavaScript to scrape data from an HTML table and generate charts using the HTML 5 Canvas element. The technique is particularly useful because the data for the visualization already exists in the page in structured tabular format, making it accessible to people who browse the web with a screen reader or other assistive technology.

I used Rapheal Works fine.

I've used Flot. It's open source using the MIT license, so you can do what you like to the API.

As for cross browser, I used it under all the major browers. There was a bug with Opera on filled charts, but that was an Opera canvas bug and it was fixed over a year ago. For IE, flot uses excanvas.

Zino UI Charts is a jQuery charting library

  • 15+ chart types (line, area, bar, column, pie, donut, spline, stepline, bubble, scatter, candlestick, ohlc, polar, radar, wind rose)
  • cross browser
  • supports SVG and HTML5 Canvas
  • PHP server-wrappers
  • GPL license

I use shieldui chart. It is very powerful and they have ASP.NET wrapper.

I think, the best is jQuery Flot charts, he has a good documentation (could be better) and even an amazing tutorial site (that I think is better to understand and use. the Flot chart)

Also, he has over 1.2K questions on SO. And plugins like the one for Zoom/Navigation and tons of others plugins for it


Highcharts is a great option too, with an excellent documentation and demo pages.

I don't like the Sparklines that much, but is a good and "easy to use" plugin.


And you can always take a look at the jQuery site page of plugins for graphics

Where you can always take a look in the latest list with votes and stuff.
