Question

Can any one point me to any resources for making graphs in HTML5? Most of resources I have seen through Google use animated graphs, I just want a simple static graph in HTML5. One more thing, I am really very weak in graphs, so a simple, easy to understand solution would be very helpful. I will be using this XML file to display data in graphical format.

Check out the new canvas tag. It allows you to draw shapes including rectangles and circles using javascript. Canvas Tutorials

If you’re looking for just a standard bar chart, though, you can use the div tag with a specified width, height, and background color. This method avoids the use of javascript.
