Invalid Xml Data For Linked Chart

[jfetner]

If one of my linked charts has a javascript link the linked chart fails to load with an Invalid xml error.  The linked chart loads correctly when I remove the link and if I load the linked chart separatly it also works.  Here is an example: (See the 2004-quarterly linked chart).

 

<chart caption='Yearly sales' xAxisName='Year' yAxisName='Sales'>
  <set label='2004' value='37800' link='newchart-xml-2004-quarterly' />
  <set label='2005' value='21900' link='newchart-xml-2005-quarterly' />
  <set label='2006' value='32900' link='newchart-xml-2006-quarterly' />
  <set label='2007' value='39800' link='newchart-xml-2007-quarterly' />
 
  <linkeddata id='2004-quarterly'>
    <chart caption='Quarterly Sales Summary' subcaption='For the year 2004'
    xAxisName='Quarter' yAxisName='Sales' >
      <set label='Q1' value='3700'  link='JavaScript: isJavaScriptCall=true; drillDownToLink("location");'/>
      <set label='Q2' value='2900' />
      <set label='Q3' value='3200' />
      <set label='Q4' value='3900' />
    </chart>
  </linkeddata>
 
  <linkeddata id='2005-quarterly'>
    <chart caption='Quarterly Sales Summary' subcaption='For the year 2005'
      xAxisName='Quarter' yAxisName='Sales'>
      <set label='Q1' value='7800' />
      <set label='Q2' value='2100' />
      <set label='Q3' value='3290' />
      <set label='Q4' value='3800' />
    </chart>
  </linkeddata>

  <linkeddata id='2006-quarterly'>
    <chart caption='Quarterly Sales Summary' subcaption='For the year 2006'
      xAxisName='Quarter' yAxisName='Sales'>
      <set label='Q1' value='3800' />
      <set label='Q2' value='2190' />
      <set label='Q3' value='3290' />
      <set label='Q4' value='3980' />
    </chart>
  </linkeddata>

  <linkeddata id='2007-quarterly'>
    <chart caption='Quarterly Sales Summary' subcaption='For the year 2007'

      <set label='Q3' value='2900' />
      <set label='Q4' value='9800' />
    </chart>
  </linkeddata>

Hi,

 

Could you please URL encode the "&" character in your "link" as "&" and see if this helps?

Ex:

<set ... link="JavaScript: isJavaScriptCall=true; drillDownToLink(&quot;location&quot;);" />
 

Hope this helps.

How to update data in linked chart when second level is open? The invalid data error is displayed.

 

Somebody help?

[Haritha]

Hi,

 

You can update the second level chart XML using the "configureLink()" function. 

 

For more information, please refer : http://docs.fusioncharts.com/charts/contents/DrillDown/LinkedCharts.html

 

Hope this helps.

Hi,

 

Please note that while you update the XML data in the chart, you are re-rendering the chart to reflect the change in the data.

 

Hence, every time you update the data, the chart would be displayed from the parent chart.

 

Hope this helps.
