Hello,

I like to display interactive graphs on a web page using Rails  
framework.  
Can you please suggest javascript library which is well integrated  
with Rails?  
I found cool widgets from YUI or Google Visualization. Anybody has  
experience using google visualization through Rails?

Thanks,  
-Meera

Open Flash Chart is well integrated with Rails thanks to the plugin made  
by PullMonkey ( [http://www.pullmonkey.com](http://www.pullmonkey.com) ) but as the name indicates  
it, it is a flash library not a javascript one even if you can use js to  
dynamically update the json data used by OFC. (
