[Phpwm] Charting for webapps and PDFs

[Chris Lovell]

Google Charts is ok, but I dislike the inability to do anything interactive
with it (or at least, that's how it was when I last checked it out!)

Personally I very much like and highly reccomend
http://www.maani.us/xml_charts/ - XML/SWF Charts, extremely flexible,
customisable and interactive. Plus as it's based on XML it can be deployed
regardless of website architecture, and rendering in Flash means it can be
used offline as well - both big plusses for me.
