Open Flash Chart
Open Flash Chart 1.x was great and it works like a dream. But I made some little mistakes which over time grew and anyoyed me and made the source code weird. So I decided it was time to re-jigger the code and make it pretty again. The big change is moving the data format to JSON. This has made a big difference and has allowed some pretty cool new features.

Why choose Open Flash Chart?
This is a little gentle propaganda for the project. Like all opinions, disregard it and make up your own mind.
Edge cases such as
- tooltips encourage user interactivity and data exploration
- what happens to the tooltip when two points are in the same position?
- you can re-size the charts
- missing data
- save the chart as an image
- You can highlight or emphasize one (or many) points
