Google Chart plugin

Would be great if it allows for a live stream of dynamic data, but that’s not a must have in v1

Live stream refers to hooking up with a data source and refreshing data frequently.

Applications may include stock or commodity prices or currency exchange rates or temperatures or wind speeds or number of visits to the site..etc etc

But as I said in OP, a plugin would be massively useful even without a live data feed.

I’ll look into this over the next week.

The other stuff doesn’t seem too difficult at all!

Brilliant! Fingers crossed. Breath bated.

The live data will be tricky since the source format would be different depending on where it comes from.

True! I was thinking more along the lines of the plugin defining a format and then if someone wants to use the function, they ensure that they supply data in that format…

In my mind I had the image of a simple csv (pretty straightforward, even standard) or xml (defined by the plugin)

But again, I think 95% of the benefit can be achieved with probably something like 50% of the work, i.e. creation of the plugin without the live data complication, and I for one would be a very enthusiastic recipient
