Yes, someone mentioned this previously. I'll look at it.

Whatever I use has to meet one of the following two requirements:

1) Is PHP native and requires no installation of additional libraries

2) Uses a lightweight library that can be legally distributed with the module and is not platform dependent.

In your case Harry, you can just make your module "Require" or "Depend on" sparklines since it's already been ported to Drupal.

I like where this is heading. +1

Any news on this? We are looking at creating a sparkline wrapper modules for the PHP library. I would like to avoid duplicate work...
