Ammar,
OK, these scenarios work fine.
Any opinion on Tyron's suggestion about using Highcharts? Otherwise, how
do you plan to implement zooming, panning and clickable points?
If Highcharts works well, it would be easier for us to handle just one
library for charts.
I would probably have used jquery plugins or write my own code for it. SVG has <a> and events also so clickable points can be implemented that way.
But i'll try highcharts now as tyron suggested.
