[ubuntu-uk] FLOSS solution for graphing in PHP

[Mark Harrison]

Hi all,

I've got what I thought would be a simple problem, and google is not 
being my friend this afternoon.

I have a database (MySQL5), and a webserver (Apache), and a programming 
language that lets me extract info from one and display it with the 
other (PHP5.) These all run on a nice friendly thing you may have heard 
of called Ubuntu :-)


What I'm after is a free (in both senses) "thing" (library, probably), 
that can grab some data, and turn it into a pretty-looking bar graph. I 
don't mind particularly how it outputs the graph provided it's something 
that can display within Firefox, so something that could dynamically 
build a PNG or a Flash, or whatever really.

However, Google has let me down - lots of chargeable libraries, but 
adding the search term "free" gives me "free trial, $69 to buy" or the 
like results.


Has anyone any personal recommendations?

M.
