Iām a little stuck with which graphics library I will use in my project. I am stuck with these two (but also open to other suggestions)
For YUI:
Pro diagrams : - Very reliable and customizable Cons: - Uses flash 9>, which could potentially be unavailable to users without updating the flash version - Does not support export to image (only for flash versions <10)
For the Google Visualization APIs, the
pros: - small file size for libraries, - can be exported to static graphical charts (via a separate API call) Cons - limited configuration options
So please help me decide. YUI graphs have an advantage over configuration options, but the Google visualization API has an advantage in terms of accessibility because it uses SVG to render grapsh instead of Flash. For users who are violated by corporate IT prohibitions, they cannot just update their version of Flash, and the page will not work.
Thank!
