    If you want to show only the chart in that page, why not use an iFrame instead of Javascript?

    You can use this plugin - WordPress › iframe « WordPress Plugins - and add the iframe using a shortcode.

      Well I succeed in displaying Javascript graph in Gleam theme of Wordpress but seems like it is not support it because I tried changing to many other themes (including defaults one) and they are working nicely.....

    If you really want to use inline JavaScript like that graph link, you could use a plugin like Scripts-and-Styles which allows you to use inline JS, CSS on a per page/post basis so you don't have to load it except on the page needed.

    OR - you could write yourself a simple WP shortcode handler that you can drop in your theme's function.php file. You could even make it into a plugin if you want so you can change themes.

    Put this in theme's functions.php file, at the end (you should just remove the closing ?> tag if it's there):
    PHP Code:
    add_shortcode( 'mirzachart', 'mirzachart_shortcode');
    function     mirzachart_shortcode(){
      return     '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="http://people.iola.dk/olau/flot/jquery.flot.js"></script>';
    } 
    Then just use the shortcode [mirzachart] in your post wherever you want to display the chart.

      Seems this is nice idea but it is not working for me. I did it according to the instructions. BTW what do u mean by removing ?> at the end? It is giving me error...
