Is there a sample code similar to that for pie charts in this thread, that would show how to build JSON data for a vertical bar chart? I'm currently using a version with hard coded data that works fine, but would like to read the data from a mysql database using a JSON formatted data table. Any example of how to generate that JSON table for a bar chart would be much appreciated. <script type="text/javascript"> google.load("visualization", "1", {packages:["corechart"]}); google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart); function drawChart() { var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([ ['Strategy', 'Cumulative Percentage Returns'], ['Core', 229 ], ['S&P 500', 77 ] ]); var options = { 'backgroundColor':'#f2f9f6', 'width':300, 'height':300, 'legend': {position: 'none'}, 'colors': ['blue'], 'vAxis': {baselineColor:'blue', baseline:0, gridlines: {count:-1}, textStyle: {color:'red', bold:'true'} }, 'hAxis': {textStyle: {fontName:'Trebuchet MS', fontSize:10, color:'black', bold:'true'} }, 'fontName':'Trebuchet MS' }; var chart = new google.visualization.ColumnChart(document.getElementById('core_chart_cumulReturns'));
chart.draw(data, options); } </script> On Tuesday, July 26, 2011 12:24:36 PM UTC-7, GerBen wrote: > Hello Colleagues, > How can I read data from an external database (say, MS SQL Server or > MySQL) and show it in a Google Chart? > Thank you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Visualization API" group.
