Hi,

Using the charting application on CF 7.02, I receive a "divide by zero"
error that appears to bubble up from Java or at least WebCharts3D (since it
doesn't have the usual CF error information). It occurs under very specific
conditions (at least in my application), and it's completely reproducible.
There's no way, however, to know where or how any division operation is
being done.

It's occurring under following conditions: The line chart has two series.
The X-axis displays date values and the Y-axis a numeric data value. The
query containing the data for the first series has a "dummy" row, containing
only a date value, in order to force the chart to begin at a specific date.
It then has one or more rows of data, so points are only shown for dates
where data was actually recorded.

The second series represents charting of an "ideal" value. The query
structure is built in code, and consists of a date and a data value for
every day within the date range. This produces a flat line showing the ideal
value.

The error occurs only when the first series has only two rows: the dummy row
and a row of real data. If there are multiple rows of real data, the chart
displays correctly.

However, if I remove the second series -- the ideal value -- the first
series displays correctly, even when the series query has only two rows. So
clearly, the error comes from some sort of interaction between the two
datasets. But there's no way to tell what the interaction is, or how to work
around it.

I've Googled and searched extensively, but found no reference to this
problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
