Thanks all for your suggestions

In summary,
All of the suggestions point to the required knowledge of one or more of these language or implementation: Applet : Great Looking, interactive "marketing" charts, no java required..but it's an applet.
Servelet : Requires Java knowledge, Java container JSP: Java knowledge
PHP, Perl, Python...
Not exactly suitable for our env - plsql web app off Apache

SVG would be an exellent choice, but requires plug-in & not universally supported.

However, I was thrilled to find "ploticus" ---- GPL, cost ZERO, good-old-non-interactive
chart engine written in C - just pipe commandline parameters & produces gif, jpeg, svg, flash....unbelievable
