Dragable Charts Submitting data to php

[ade]

Has anyone had experience in using the dragable chart functionality and return the data to a php processing script?

Hi,

Can you please let us know what problem you're facing?

[ade]

I am trying to return the data updated from a Drag-able chart :

 

 

 

where the chart is ouput via :

 

echo "var chart1 = new FusionCharts("Charts/DragColumn2D.swf

 

 

 

and the chart element is :

 

 

 

 

from the online documentation it looked as if the processing script could simply capture the updated xml by something like :

 

 

 

<?php

 

/* $Id update_sta.php */

 

$data = $_GET["strXML"];

 

 

 

but this doesn't work for me.

 

 

 

There is an example for ASP capturing the response. I was wondering what a PHP equivalent would be.

I guess the PHP part should be similar to ASP. Can you make sure (from the server log) that the chart is calling the PHP page with the right FORM submission type (defined in XML)?

Hi,

I have a similar question with regards to drag-and-drop:

We would like to be able to rearrange the bars in a chart by dragging them around: for vertical bars, for example, it means dragging a bar from left to right.

 

It doesn't matter what the server-side technology is (java in our case, or php in other cases) as long as there is a javascript callback we can hook to and cause the form to send the server a notification of the new order.

I'm afraid you cannot reposition the bars in our chart. Currently, we just allow changing the values.
