  1. Closer. It looks like I was using the wrong encoding. Using "%26" instead of "&" lets all the parameters through to my server. I probably should have known better. Now if there was just a way to make the SWF send just one request instead of two.... Anyone have ideas here? Later... Hmm, now it's not sending 2 requests. It may have something to do with the SWFs in multiple tabs. I'll be watching for this to happen again and see if I can diagnose further. -Stevers

  2. Attribute Caption On All Elements

    Stevers replied to Dantrech's topic in Suggestions & Requests

    Yes, this will help me, too, but please add another vote to the request for "caption" (and "subcaption") support in all widgets. -Stevers
  3. Yes, that was part of it. Now on to the fun stuff... I need to use the setChartDataUrl (or equivalent) because I have dynamically generated server content. That, in and of itself, doesn't appear to be a problem. Unless my URL has parameters associated with it. Separated by ampersand (&). Now I have a problem. I want to pass this to my server: /quality/dashboards/top-failures/current-data.jsp?inctp=P&dashboard=true&dial=true&warning=3&error=5 If I use this Javascript chart.setChartDataUrl( xmlUrl.replace( /\&/g, "&" ), "xml" ); I end up with 2 requests to the server with the following query strings: [9/28/11 10:12:26:340 CDT] 00000152 SystemOut O inctp=P&dashboard=true&dial=true&warning=3&error=5 [9/28/11 10:12:26:555 CDT] 00000152 SystemOut O inctp=P&dashboard=true&dial=true&warning=3&error=5 When I don't replace '&' with '&' I end up with these requests: [9/28/11 10:13:21:038 CDT] 00000153 SystemOut O inctp=P&dashboard=true&dial=true&warning=3&error=5 [9/28/11 10:13:21:265 CDT] 00000153 SystemOut O inctp=P This is the only line I changed. I think this proves that this one Javascript line results in 2 data requests. Why? That's twice as many database queries that I need to run, and some of these may take a bit. I can worry about the database side of things, but I don't like it when I'm being asked for things that aren't needed. Now let's switch to the FusionWidgets FusionCharts.js file and use setDataURL. The first thing I notice is that the unnecessary server request is eliminated. Good. The second thing I notice is that only the first parameter makes it to the server, regardless of if I've replaced '&' with '&' or not. Bad #1. But I can't use this .js file because I also have v3.2.1 FusionCharts SWFs on the page. Bad #2. So once again I'm stuck and need some help going forward. -Stevers Later... It's the "chart.render()" Javascript API call that results in the additional server request (the one that drops the additional parameters). I think I can avoid that, but I feel that mixing these two versions is a big pain.
  4. Stevers started following How To Combine Fusion Charts And Fusion Widgets In A Single Page (Again) and Fusionwidgets Not Working With Fusioncharts .js Under Firefox
  5. I haven't received an update for a while on a prior thread and my issue looks like a problem with FusionCharts / FusionWidgets, so I thought I'd try again in a better forum. Basically I'm unable to combine FusionWidgets and FusionCharts on the same page because the two FusionCharts.js files do not work together. Nor can I use the one from FusionCharts v3.2.1 to drive FusionWidgets v3.1.1. Here's the code again: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Failures</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../dashboards.css" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <div id="currentChartContainer">loading current chart...</div> <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionCharts/v3.2.1/FusionCharts.js"></script><!-- (#1) --> <!-- <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionWidgets/v3.1.1/FusionCharts.js"></script> (#2) --> <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionCharts/v3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var chart = new FusionCharts( "/common2/FusionWidgets/v3.1.1/AngularGauge.swf", "currentChart", "100%", "70%", "0", "1" ); // chart.setChartDataUrl( "current-data.xml", "xml" ); chart.setDataXML( '<chart caption="Caption" subCaption="SubCaption" animation="0" lowerLimit="0" upperLimit="7" gaugeStartAngle="180" gaugeEndAngle="0" palette="3"><colorRange><color minValue="0" maxValue="3" code="FF654F" /><color minValue="3" maxValue="5" code="F6BD0F" /><color minValue="5" maxValue="7" code="8BBA00" /></colorRange><dials><dial value="2" /></dials></chart>' ); chart.render( "currentChartContainer" ); </script> </body> </html> Option #1 works under IE and Chrome, but not Firefox. Why not? -Stevers
  6. Sure <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Failures</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../dashboards.css" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <div id="currentChartContainer">loading current chart...</div> <!-- <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionCharts/v3.2.1/FusionCharts.js"></script> (#1) --> <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionWidgets/v3.1.1/FusionCharts.js"></script><!-- (#2) --> <script type="text/javascript" src="/common2/FusionCharts/v3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var chart = new FusionCharts( "/common2/FusionWidgets/v3.1.1/AngularGauge.swf", "currentChart", "100%", "70%", "0", "1" ); // chart.setChartDataUrl( "current-data.xml", "xml" ); chart.setDataXML( '<chart caption="Caption" subCaption="SubCaption" animation="0" lowerLimit="0" upperLimit="7" gaugeStartAngle="180" gaugeEndAngle="0" palette="3"><colorRange><color minValue="0" maxValue="3" code="FF654F" /><color minValue="3" maxValue="5" code="F6BD0F" /><color minValue="5" maxValue="7" code="8BBA00" /></colorRange><dials><dial value="2" /></dials></chart>' ); chart.render( "currentChartContainer" ); </script> </body> </html> Option #2 works. I can't get option #1 to work with any setData method I've tried, the page or chart area is completely blank. File FusionCharts.js from the FusionCharts folder has "@version 3.2.1-release" in the header comments. Hmm... This may be a Firefox issue. Option #1 displays a gauge in IE (v7) and Chrome (v14), but not Firefox (v6.0.2) even after clearing the cache. I see no errors in the Javascript console. Any ideas? -Stevers P.S. Sorry for posting in this forum, it wasn't the one I was intending to use. I'm guessing it is the same forum that hosted the previous thread I found.
  7. I read another topic where someone was having trouble combining FusionCharts and FusionWidgets on the same page. It's about a year old. I'm having the same problem and that solution didn't help me. I've narrowed down the problem to a simple page with an angular chart (v3.1.1). I can get the chart to display when I use the corresponding FusionCharts.js file. However I can't get anything to show when I use FusionCharts.js from the FusionCharts v3.2.1 package. I've tried several methods to set the data (setDataXML, setChartDataUrl, setXMLUrl), but nothing seems to work. All these are the trial versions, but we're in the process of getting them licensed. Do I need to go through the v3.1.1 .js file and rename all "FusionCharts" to "FusionChartsOld" or something like that so I can load both .js files? I'd prefer to have one .js file that supports both versions, but that doesn't like it's going to work. -Stevers
