Some time ago I found these nice flash charting library:

So it was a no-brainer to write the components to wrap that functionality so it can be used in Delphi for PHP.

Here you can find a demo application:

On the next few days, I will post some more articles showing how easy is to write these components and integrate them into Delphi for PHP.

The articles will show:

• Add persistent properties, like Font or your own ones for the chart axis
• Array properties and use the built-in property editors
• Write your own property editor in Delphi for Windows
• How to use events on your property editor
• How to add get design information from your property editor
