Learning jqPlotScott Gottreu did a fine job on this title, it was informative, to the point, and the code worked. The information was detailed and to the point, I felt like I learned something new which was my intentions for reading this title. "This book empowers you to create highly-customized charts and graphs that present your data in a visually appealing and analytic manner." This was taken from the publisher page for this title and it's spot on, I did enjoy starting from a very basic graph and moving on to a more advanced graph.There isn't really much more to say about this title, I've used other plugins and they are pretty good but I feel leveraging the power of jqPlot opens the door for even better data representation using charts or graphs. I would also like to mention this is probably the first Packt book where the author actually utilized some humor and it was very refreshing. I REALLY REALLY enjoyed the story driven type setup, it actually helps me retain information. There are charts-o-plenty in this book as well, so if you're a visual learner like me you'll really appreciate the number of elements which are represented in full color for the eBook version. I did like the emphasis on limitations and I would have liked to seen more scenarios that require heavy loads or database driven dashboards. The remote loading was a nifty feature, do people still use that word?All in all I'm very pleased with this book, it will allow you to add some pizzazz to your web application while maintaining a well known and liked framework, no need to re-invent the wheel on this one folks. If you're just wondering if remote datasets are covered, you're in luck because they are. I would say I could have used a few more pages with database driven charts but I'm confident I can fill in the blanks. I'd highly recommend this book to anyone creating a web application that requires visual representation of the data, you'll really enjoy this one.[...]
