ejschart.com — EJSChart is canvas-based with many interactive features such as zooming and auto scaling. The product has been in development for some time but the web site has just been established. It features interactivity, axis scaling, zooming, scrolling, ajax-driven data, and much more. Entirely written in JavaScript !

The summary states that it is "entirely written in JavaScript" but then says that it uses ajax-driven data. So which is it? If it is using AJAX, then one assumes there is server side code, and therefore not just javascript. I guess it could be using server-side javascript, but then where is the significance?

Who the F really uses Opera? It's a FF 2.0/IE 7/ Safari world....

Thats enough to make this bunk for me. gotta support my growing # of Safari users, although I want to throw them all off a cliff.

My antivirus tagged it as a javascript trojan "JS/Xilos" when the page loaded...

More so, they're referring to the display technology. Until canvas, you couldn't really do any true graphics in javascript without something else helping out (flash, java, etc). So doing graphics in javascript without anything else is awesome. I'm sure it hooks into different backends, as you really wouldn't want the data coming from something javascript. But in the end; no plugins, no "just in time", just instant javascript. Nice.

Cute, get the RRD-tool guys to adopt it.

From what I can tell, it's because the javascript is contained in a giant string, which is then eval'ed, which is something the Xilos virus did.<a class="user" href="http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_99460.htm">http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_99460.htm</a>

It does work with the latest released version of Safari, this guy is using the nightly builds and then complaining that they are buggy......

Pretty rockin' cheap actually. If it's easy to use, you better get set up to accept purchase orders (or resell through vendors) and not just PayPal. Most businesses don't want to (or simply won't) go the PayPal route.

Most businesses where? In Nigeria? Because PayPal is used and trusted by 100's of millions of people without problems. Now you'll show paypalsucks.com and pretend well under 0.1% of users with bad experiences are some sort of "norm" of course.
