Reports and charts in your web app

recently i looked for a reporting solution for our Web application , i founded the next impressive products - i am sure there are much more :
RenderX.
Crystal reports.
and the lovelly open source solution BIRT.

i played with the BIRT in my eclipse and i get impressed from his drag and drop feature , and the ability to design charts, and use xml or db as a data source for my reports.For more info and step by step tutorial working with BIRT Library goto here, here is a good link about Deploying BIRT , BIRT have the ability to create and show charts as well, here is the Using the BIRT Report Viewer , anoter good design of BIRT PPT .
And here is the way to generate BIRT report via schedular without tomact.

About Charts in my web page - i think the jfreechart is the one - whatever is good for my banking is perfect for me.
another community project is the Jchart.

i am also looking for a work flow diagram to integrate into our Web solution , i found this java work flow solution - JDiagram .

enjoy
