Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm looking at upgrading the charts that we use across the site, to offer a bit more interaction.

One of the best chart packages I've found at the moment is this:

highcharts.com

Any coders out there know of some good alternatives just so I can weigh them up?

There's dozens - as I expect you know. jqplot (uses jquery) is very widely used. Lots of sites use d3.js (it can do everything, but that means it can be a bit daunting). Highcharts is indeed very good, but not cheap.

Thanks for the recommendations - I'd seen d3.js before. I'll do some playing :-)

This isn't going to help much (other than bumping the thread for evening fetchies) but we used highcharts at my last job and liked it a lot.

Got something to say?
