Does anyone know of a way to create a line graph using html or javascript?

I need to create a line graph with html or jave script without paying a company $99 for their javascript it (e.g. swiftchart). The graph needs to handle multiple trends in the same graph... meaning that I would like to see 3 or more lines going accross in one graph.

Any Help?

Depending on how L33t you are, you might like to know of the "data:" URI scheme.

Timeplot is impressive and similar in features to swiftchart.

I forget to mention, It needs to work in iexplorer, so that rules out Timeplot. But thanks anyway. Can PlotKit give line without shading the area underneath?

I've used WebFX Chart for simple line graphs.

You can check out the javascript embedded in this page (self link) for a simple usage example.

Chart draws to a Canvas tag and uses ExplorerCavanas for IE compatibility.

WebFX chart works perfectly!

Thank you!
