MSNBC.com, ProPublica and Mother Jones magazine are working with a research company to create an online database of the documents. ...

We used the jQuery library Flot to draw simple, interactive line charts that showed how the debt and deficit would change under the different plans. Flot is very easy to use, flexible and customizable, and is one of many free-to-use JavaScript graphing libraries out there (Dracula, Highcharts and RGraph are a few others). &quot;]]></content:encoded>
