Ideas:
- Work for weight vs age, height vs age, height vs weight, etc etc
- Work against various standards (CDC, WHO, national goverments)
Todos:
- Clarify which chart is which. (and if dataset is for boys and/or girls)
- Smoothly change between charts (How to dynamically add data to a chart)
- Default is to select the last datum; highlight it and show tooltip
- Improved tickmarks
- Labels on the lines, or a legend (%tile, malnourished/severely/normal); color for different lines
- Improve tooltip style... 1, 2, 3
Other Growth charts:
- OpenMRS Growth Chart module

- page 143, table 14 (weight vs age, 2 to 20 years)
