Hi,

I am working on a dashboard that uses sparkline and sparkcolumn charts.

I noticed if I use the current version of fusioncharts.js (@version 3.2.0-release) I get an "Error in loading data" error because the generated dataURL is not resolving correctly. However, if I replace the fusioncharts.js file with an old version (Version: 1.2.3 (15th September, 2008) - Added fix for % and & characters.) the chart renders fine.

Here is the generated source using fusioncharts.js version 3.2 (WHICH RETURNS "Error in loading data"):
<div id="chart100770div" class="chartclass"><object style="visibility: visible;" id="chartID100770" data="/Charts/SparkLine.swf" class="FusionCharts" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="50" lang="EN" width="200"><param value="noScale" name="scaleMode"><param value="noScale" name="scale"><param value="transparent" name="wMode"><param value="always" name="allowScriptAccess"><param value="best" name="quality"><param value="lang=EN&amp;debugMode=0&amp;animation=undefined&amp;DOMId=chartID100770&amp;registerWithJS=1&amp;chartWidth=200&amp;chartHeight=50&amp;InvalidXMLText=Invalid data.&amp;stallLoad=true&amp;dataXML=&amp;dataURL=" name="flashvars"></object></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var chart100770 = new FusionCharts("/Charts/SparkLine.swf", "chartID100770", "200", "50", "0", "1");
chart100770.setTransparent(true);
chart100770.setDataURL("/red/dashboar.nsf/xmlpie?OpenAgent?chart=100770%26chartWidth=300%26chartHeight=800%26chartRisqueId=64D5B6A9CD4241E6852577E50016BBBA%26");
chart100770.render("chart100770div");

Here is the debug info:

ERROR: An error occurred while loading data. Please check your dataURL, by clicking on the "dataURL invoked" link above, to see if it's returing valid XML data. Common causes for error are:
No URL Encoding provided for querystrings in dataURL. If your dataURL contains querystrings as parameters, you'll need to URL Encode the same. e.g., Data.asp?id=101&subId=242 should be Data%2Easp%3Fid%3D101%26subId%3D242
Different sub-domain of chart .swf and dataURL. Both need to be same owing to sandbox security.

Here is the generated source using fusioncharts.js version 1.2.3 (WHICH WORKS CORRECTLY):

<div id="chart100770div" class="chartclass"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="/Charts/SparkLine.swf" id="chartID100770" name="chartID100770" quality="high" allowscriptaccess="always" wmode="transparent" flashvars="debugMode=0&amp;chartWidth=200&amp;chartHeight=50&amp;DOMId=chartID100770&amp;registerWithJS=1&amp;scaleMode=noScale&amp;lang=EN&amp;dataURL=/red/dashboar.nsf/xmlpie?OpenAgent?chart=100770%26chartWidth=300%26chartHeight=800%26chartRisqueId=64D5B6A9CD4241E6852577E50016BBBA%26" height="50" width="200"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var chart100770 = new FusionCharts("/Charts/SparkLine.swf", "chartID100770", "200", "50", "0", "1");
chart100770.setTransparent(true);
chart100770.setDataURL("/red/dashboar.nsf/xmlpie?OpenAgent?chart=100770%26chartWidth=300%26chartHeight=800%26chartRisqueId=64D5B6A9CD4241E6852577E50016BBBA%26");
chart100770.render("chart100770div");


Please don't suggest that I change the DataURL that I am passing. I need the url to contain both "?" characters (I am using Lotus/Domino v8.5.1 to generate the xml).

Can you please provide/suggest a fix for this issue? I need to get this working asap using v3.2.

BTW, the DataURL string that I listed above (url's with 2 "?") works fine for other fusion charts such as PIE3D.swf using fusioncharts.js (@version 3.2.0-release). The issue seems to be with the spark charts swf's.

Thank You.
