Answer 1

Use the javascript library to build diagrams on HTML5 pages. I recommend these schemes.

this is similar to your schedule. http://www.jqplot.com/tests/OHLCTests.php http://code.google.com/apis/chart/docs/gallery/compound_charts.html#candlestick_charts

Answer 2

Google maps have good api and are free.

Answer 3

If you are looking for JS candlestick charts, jQPlot has them .

If you want to see other options, here is a list of JS diagrams:

Some of them are also interactive. If I remember correctly, StackOverflow uses Flot for a reputation graph .

Answer 4

Just try my favorite answer here: Raphael.js and the plugin for graphs, gRaphael

Answer 5

The best option, in my opinion, is the Google Api Chart. Easy to learn and useful, as Q_the_novice said.

Answer 6

I personally like YUI for mapping (at least YUI2). I wrote a tutorial on using YUI to create diagrams, which you can see here:

This is fundamentally easy to do, diagrams are drawn in flash, and you can customize most of their appearance. More details:
