Javascript Or Jquery

[deepti]

Hi,

 

What are the advantages of using javascript over jquery plugin or viceversa for creating the fusioncharts?

 

Can I set the following fusioncharts object properties with either of these or both of these ?

 

private java.lang.String debugMode;

private java.lang.String registerWithJS;

private java.lang.String wMode;

private java.lang.String scaleMode;

private java.lang.String lang;

private java.lang.String detectFlashVersion;

private java.lang.String autoInstallRedirect;

 

If so can you please give an example or a link I can refer for the same.

 

Thanks,

Deepti.

Hi Deepti,

 

Thank you for the post.

 

Starting FusionCharts XT, you can use popular jQuery syntax to render and manipulate FusionCharts. This can be done using FusionCharts jQuery plugin.

FusionCharts jQuery plugin helps you to render FusionCharts anywhere within a web page.

 

Also it helps you to change chart type, update and retrieve chart data, update functional and cosmetic settings and use all existing features of FusionCharts.

 

Adding a chart at the end or beginning of an existing container are easily possible using this plugin. Moreover, a custom selector helps you find all the charts in your page or in any container element.

 

For more details on 'FusionCharts jQuery plugin overview', please refer to the link below,

OR

 

If you want to use the JavaScript, then please refer to the link below,

Hope this helps !

Essentially, the jQuery Plugin is a "wrapper" around the main FusionCharts JavaScript library. The jQuery plugin, simply put, allows you to render FusionCharts in the familiar jQuery syntax.

 

Regarding the object properties, I am a bit confused. Your code-snippet refers to server-side Java code. However, your initial discussion was between JavaScript and jQuery API (both client-side) and not Java.

Nevertheless, within the client browser, you surely can procure the object properties. The properties you have listed out are scattered under various sub-objects. A complete list of such properties can be found at: JavaScript API Reference -> Overview in FusionCharts documentation.
