Good javascript-graph library

Question

I need do create a pretty complicated graph in Javascript. It's a line-graph with dots that are click-able. I've looked at the google-api, and it just won't do. Also, it needs to be able to rendre several graphs in one window.

Would be really nice if it was powered by jQuery, since the rest of the project is running on that platform.

Does anyone know about any good libraries? I have not gotten across any suitable yet.

gRaphaël is a plug-in that extends the super impressive Raphaël JavaScript vector library and provides extensive APIs for canned and 100% custom charts / graphs. It is also MIT licensed, which means it's free for commercial and non-commercial use!

HighCharts may fit your needs, and it has amazing looks. Have a look at the demo page line chart with clickable dots where there is an example of line chart with multiple lines and clickable dots

We are also using HighCharts, but the HighStocks variation.

Answer 5

Try highcharts:

http://www.highcharts.com/

It uses either jQuery, MooTools or Prototype to run: http://www.highcharts.com/documentation/how-to-use

There are more jQuery alternatives though: http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/css/top-jquery-chart-libraries-interactive-charts/
