Export Issue When Initiating Export Via Javascript

Recommended Posts

I am trying to export a fusion chart created using 'Embedding Charts Using / Tags'.

 

Export works just perfect with the right click (on the chart) and chose a pdf to export. But I am not able to make this work via javascript. I have a button outside the chart which upon clicking calls the function below

 

function myexport()

{

var cObject = getChartFromId('Column3D');

if( cObject.hasRendered() ) cObject.exportChart({exportFormat: 'PDF'});

}

the cObject above returned is null and this fails on the next line

 

here is the full prototype

 

<html> <head> <title>My Chart</title> <script type="text/javascript" src="fusionCharts.debug.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="fusionChartsExportComponent.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

function ExportMyChart()

{

var cObject = getChartFromId('Column3D');

if( cObject.hasRendered() ) cObject.exportChart({exportFormat: 'PDF'});

}

</script>

</head>

<body>

<object width="400" height="400" id="Column3D" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"

codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" >

<param name="testname" value="Column3D.swf" />

<param name="FlashVars" value="&dataURL=testData.xml&chartWidth=400&chartHeight=300&DOMId=myChart1&registerWithJS=1&debugMode=0">

<param name="quality" value="high" />

 

<embed src="Column3D.swf" flashVars="&dataURL=testData.xml&chartWidth=400&chartHeight=300&DOMId=myChart1&registerWithJS=1&debugMode=0"

width="400" height="300" name="Column3D" quality="high" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />

 

</object>

 

<!-- We also create a DIV to contain the FusionCharts client-side exporter component -->

<div id="holderDiv" align="center">FusionCharts Export Handler Component</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

var myExportComponent = new FusionChartsExportObject("testExporter1", "FCExporter.swf");

//Render the exporter SWF in our DIV fcexpDiv

myExportComponent.Render("holderDiv"); </script>

 

<input type="button" value="Export My Chart" onclick="ExportMyChart()" />

Please find the modified code below:

 

 

<html>

<head>

<title>My Chart</title>

<script type="text/javascript" src="../../FusionCharts/FusionCharts.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="../../FusionCharts/FusionChartsExportComponent.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

function ExportMyChart()

{

 

var cObject = document.getElementById('Column3D');

 

if( cObject.hasRendered && cObject.hasRendered())

cObject.exportChart({exportFormat: 'PDF'});

}

</script>

</head>

<body>

 

<object lang="EN" width="400" height="500" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../../FusionCharts/Column3D.swf" id="Column3D" ><param name="scaleMode" value="noScale"><param name="scale" value="noScale"><param name="wMode" value="opaque"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="quality" value="best"><param name="flashvars" value="

&DOMId=Column3D&registerWithJS=1&chartWidth=400&chartHeight=500&dataURL=ExportClient.xmL&debugMode=0"></object>

 

<!-- We also create a DIV to contain the FusionCharts client-side exporter component -->

<div id="holderDiv" align="center">FusionCharts Export Handler Component</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

var myExportComponent = new FusionChartsExportObject("fcExporter1", "../../FusionCharts/FCExporter.swf");

//Render the exporter SWF in our DIV fcexpDiv

myExportComponent.Render("holderDiv");

 

</script>

 

<input type="button" value="Export My Chart" onClick="ExportMyChart()" />

 

 

Hope this helps.smile.gif

Thank you so much for your reply !

 

That worked like a charm, though I had to remove the embed tag from our chart implementations. Still testing it, but looks good for now.

 

Thanks again!
