I am looking for some sort of a free JavaScript/JQuery graphing library that has a lot of scatter plot functionality. Ultimately, I want to link the plot up with a SharePoint list and drop it in a collaboration site; in such a way it will dynamically update.
My difficulty is that I want a scatter plot where I can change the x-axis and y-axis values to strings (i.e.; x-axis employee names, and y-axis proposal names).
I looked at a whole bunch of libraries (i.e.; flot, Dojox, most of the other options in this thread JavaScript Chart Library), but cannot find this funcitonality in free software (pretty sure Fusion Charts has it if you pay).
I also realize what I am creating (a scatterplot with fixed grid employee & proposal name values) is basically just a chart… however there’s nothing–to my knowledge–that will allow me to make a dyanmically updating chart.
Can anyone offer any library tips, or advice? I am not experienced enough to know of any “work arounds” for this problem.
