Also, the article mentions that IE doesn't support the <canvas> tag. While this is true, you only need to add the excanvas JS library to use <canvas> in IE.
- iamwil 16y agoI've worked with gRaphael. it's still immature, and the code base is still immature. I'd look at protovis before taking a look at gRaphael. However, I do wish that protovis is based on Raphael and jQuery.

- iamwil 16y agoyou couldn't put y-axis tick mark labels on bar graphs, to start.
- nikz 16y agoI'd second this. We've been using GRaphael for the reporting graphs on MinuteDock, and we had to manually hack in a bunch of things - like rotating the labels on the x-axis correctly if they were too long, and even drawing both axes on some graph types. It's worth the effort though - works on iPhone/iPad out of the box, and is super snappy even on OS X (unlike most Flash charting solutions, including Google Viz.)
- brown9-2 16y agoLooks like the documentation is still in progress: http://g.raphaeljs.com/reference.html http://g.raphaeljs.com/reference.html but the demos are pretty impressive.
- blasdel 16y agoexcanvas doesn't get you support for the full API -- getImageData() isn't supported since you can't do that with VML.
- kilian 16y agoSorry to be pimping my own stuff, but for the moment I think Grafico is more mature/offers better charts than gRaphael: http://grafico.kilianvalkhof.com/ http://grafico.kilianvalkhof.com/ Worth taking a look regardless :)
- sgt 16y agoThanks for posting. No you don't have to be sorry for pimping your own stuff. If you didn't, I probably never would have heard of Grafico.
