AmCharts is a set of Flash charts for your websites and Web-based products for free. AmCharts can extract data from simple CSV or XML files, or they can read dynamic data generated with PHP, .NET, Java, Ruby on Rails, Perl, ColdFusion, and many other programming languages.

This is a universal 3D/2D column & bar chart. It can be clustered, stacked and 100% stacked. Columns and bars can be floating, or fused together to create histograms. This chart is also capable of displaying line & area graphs – even overlaid on top of a colum/bar chart.
