I am looking for a Library that allows me to create Charts like the “Annotated Time Lines” that are e.g. used on Google Finance. I can’t use the Google API because it relies on Flash and my chart should not only work on all common browsers but also be usable with mobile devices like the ipad.
I don’t need all of the features of Google’s Solution, but displaying linked event flags in the chart is an essential requirement and the ability to arbitrarily zoom and pan the chart would also be nice, the latter feature is however not a must on mobile devices and older browsers.
A serverside solution that transparently generates plain image charts if flash (or other client features like canvas-elements) is not available on the client would also be ok, I have asp.net mvc 2 running on the serverside.
An open source solution would be great, but a commercial library or component is also an option.
Any Suggestions?
What about http://highcharts.com, their API is very complete
