setDataXML works the 2nd time it's called

[msherwoo]

I create a chart object when the page gets loaded:

 

 

 

var chart1 = new FusionCharts("FusionCharts/MSLine.swf", "chart1Id", "740", "350", "0", "1");

 

chart1.setTransparent(true);

 

chart1.setDataXML("");

 

chart1.render("chart1div");

 

 

 

Then after a button click and some ajax the chart gets fed new data like this

 

 

 

chartObj.setDataXML(chart_xml);

 

 

 

The first time it runs it returns

 

 

 

setDataXML is not a function

 

 

 

but a 2nd click works just fine.

 

 

 

Any suggestions?

Hello

Could you please try to change this line in your above code:

chart1.setDataXML("<chart></chart>");

Hope this helps

I find that this sometimes leads to "No data to display" message. Is this minimal XML code considered legal (no dataset, etc.)?

Hi,

 

 

 

You can always use <chart/> as the minimum valid XML.
