Newbie just starting on charting with PHP - and seeking advice on options/approaches

["Greg Cocks" <gcocks(at)stoller(dot)com>]

Hello,

 

I am looking at options to chart dynamic data held in the PostgreSQL
database pushed out to the web 'pages' via PHP, time series data in a
scientific setting such as groundwater levels from a transducer...

 

I was seeking any input anyone might care to offer...

 

Initial searching found these:

 

*	http://www.maani.us/charts/index.php (with newbie tutorial I
found at http://www.developer.com/lang/php/article.php/3714046 ) 

 

*	http://quimby.gnus.org/circus/chart/chart-manual.php 

 

*	http://www.amcharts.com/ 

 

*	http://naku.dohcrew.com/libchart/pages/introduction/ 

 

*	http://code.google.com/apis/chart/ (simple example explained
here --> http://james.cridland.net/code/google-chart.html ) 

 

*	Or any other thoughts?? 

 

(I guess I could maybe pull together US$100 for licence if needed...)

 

I don't need anything fancy, as the technical data analysis will be done
inside the network with ODBC, etc... this is more for the less-technical
web page user to see the data graphically... (much like they can see it
spatially via MapServer...)

 

Thanks in advance!
