Coupling ajax-server-side-action-methods to the plots is easy - I guess hanging rich:a4j:support would be enough.

Besides, would be nice, to have some nice effects in your plots such as the flash-based plots.

Well, JFreeChart relies on the server parsing the data and rendering a bitmap image (JPG/PNG). This image is then transferred from the client to the server.

With JSFlot, the JS library, and the datapoints and config are transferred. Therefore, a lot of the processing is moved from the server onto the client, which will be very beneficial in many environments (There is usually a lot of resources available at the client end, but the server needs to scale for many users).

By the way, where lies the difference of JSFlot and JFreeChart?

JSFlot have mousetracking as well (enable the "Tooltip" option in the Live Demo at http://jsflotdemo.haagen.name ).

Mouse events is also planned for JSFlot. I am currently working on the drag-and-drop via Ajax (as described above), after which I will have more options to implement other mouse events, as the Ajax bit is already in place.

The example

shows the datapoint by moving within the graph. Would be really nice to have a JSF-property which holds the actual selected datapoint. Imagine I click on a datapoint and return exactly this record via backend.

Version 0.2.0 is out with the following new features:

* Fixed a bug where only /faces/ prefix and .jsf suffix for the Faces Servlet works with loading the JavaScript? Resources.
