We are happy to announce the availability of jQWidgets 1.6. This release marks the debut of the jqxChart widget. jqxChart is an easy to use jQuery Chart widget. It is written 100% in JavasSript and uses W3C standards like HTML, CSS and SVG. jqxChart provides optimal chart rendering performance and visualization quality across browsers and devices (PCs, Laptops, Tablets & Smart phones). It automatically detects the browser capabilitiy and uses SVG rendering with hardware acceleration (when available) in modern browsers (IE9+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera) and VML rendering in IE8 and earlier browsers. The ability to render both SVG and VML makes jqxChart an ideal choice for adding charting capabilities in your web sites and applications. Browser plugins are not required!
