How do I embedd a graph in asp.net

I开发者_JAVA技巧'm looking to graph basic database data in a X Y axis graph.

I would like a solution where the users do not need to download any extra plug-ins (i.e. Silverlight).

Looking for the most efficient/fastest solution where the chart is embedded into the page as a graph, instead of just looking at the table data.

Is there a built-in solution for this in asp.net 3.0?

A good option would be to use the Microsoft Charting Controls for ASP.Net which you add to your asp.net application. It can then be used to create various different kinds of charts with your data and the result could be an image to the client (jpg, png etc). Your users wouldn't require any add-ons etc

I suggest http://code.google.com/apis/chart/, it's Google's Charting API. They are plugin-free, you just link to an image and Google draws the thing for you dynamically.
