tgsrini Report post Posted November 17, 2007 Newbie question. I attempted a simple 3D chart. Followed the steps as in documentation. But the chart does not display either in browser or PPT. What am I doing wrong? Platform: Windows XP, IE7, PPT 2003. xml: - <html> - <head> <script language="JavaScript" src="FusionCharts.js" /> </head> - <body bgcolor="#ffffff"> - <!-- --> <div id="chartdiv" align="center">FusionCharts</div> <script type="text/javascript">var myChart = new FusionCharts("Column3D.swf", "FusionCharts_1", "450", "300", "0", "0"); myChart.setDataURL("Data.xml"); myChart.render("chartdiv");</script> - <!-- --> </body> </html> Data.xml: <chart caption="Povert Declined in Yemen" subcaption=") ???? ?? ??????? ?? ???? ??? " palette="1"> <set label="1998" value="41.0" /> <set label="2005" value="35.0" /> </chart> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FusionCharts Support Report post Posted November 20, 2007 Hi, To show Unicoded characters you need to set character encoding type to UTF-8..or having proper BOM mark I have saved your XML thus and please try it.. Data.xml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tgsrini Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Thanks guys. But my problem is basic. Even withour Arabic caption, the chart does not display in browser or Powerpoint. I use IE7 with ActiveX content allowed. If you can, please send me a folder with data.xml, chart.xml for a simple 3Dcolumn chart. I will add the necessary jave file and attempt to open it in IE. It must be some simple thing missing..... tgsrini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tgsrini Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Ok, made progress to display the chart. But the Arabic sub-caption is reversed - the words in the phrase I pasted appear left to right. I encoded in UTF-8 as advised. Now, what should I do to get the correct ordering of words in Arabic ? Data.xml <?xml version=="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <chart caption="Poverty Declined in Yemen" subcaption="????? ????? ?? ?????" palette="1"> <set label="1998" value="40.0" /> <set label="2005" value="35.0" /> </chart> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pallav Report post Posted November 23, 2007 I'm afraid FusionCharts supports only LtoR languages. As such, you'll have to programatically reverse the sequence of characters in your word, before providing it to FusionCharts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
