I prefer Flash reports. Reports that are presentational, like pies
and charts, deserve a presentational delivery. As I've
demonstrated for the group, PHP and Flash can produced spectacular
results together.
While I understand that free and open source are very important to
many in this group, business demands force me to go for superior
excellence, wherever it may take me. While static graphs are not
bad per se, they simply don't rise to spectacular.
I second that. Flex has some pretty cool charting stuff. I'd check it out.

Oh, John, don't get me started on Flex! You are so right. The Flash
player may not be open source, but it is free to use. And with the
Flex SDK open source, and Adobe pressing into Linux, and new
components coming out, Flex is going to be making some big splashes.
Have you checked out FlexLib?
(http://code.google.com/p/flexlib/wiki/ComponentList) It's open source
components are really cool. They have charting (example at
http://flexlib.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/HorizontalAxisDataSelector/HorizontalAxisDataSelector_Sample.swf). But as you know, you can encapsulate any existing Flash SWF
internally.
