The wiki macro bridge has been released with 2.0M2. May be you can put it to
test by trying to implement your chart macro ;)
If you come across any problems while you are at it, we can improve wiki
macro bridge :)
Thanks.

I have Macros/JS working together all the time, using JSX. I'm certain it's
possible, given the kinds of integration I've been able to do in
Exhibit&Xwiki, e.g. http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/Exhibit/NPRpods3
...
Here's a simple example, which are tests for my Xwiki integration of
http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/ which is the media
player used in the NPRpods3 application above:

(xwiki integration of
http://home5.inet.tele.dk/nyboe/flash/mediaplayer4/JW_API_xmpl_5-2-4-0.html
with an improvement, the JWplayer example doesn't work on Linux/Firefox,
mine does!)

(wiki-code for above)
http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/jsx/Macros/JWPlayerJSPL_Test
(the javascript playlist from XWiki.JavaScriptExtension[0])
Another interesting advanced JS
data-visualization toolkit that would be
useful to integrate in Xwiki.

Protovis sounds cool, but the way xwiki macros work will make it difficult
(or messy) to implement a macro that will have to depend on a JS library.
What we can do is this:
* Implement the wiki-macro bridge:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3213 (Basically this will allow
you
to convert any wiki content into your personal macro) - I'll finish this
in
a week or so.
* We use a JSX (?) to get protovis support.
* Neils can implement a js charting wiki-macro using protovis ;)
I want to ask other developers, Is this possible? (I have a confusion
about
macros + js working together)
