Hello HighRoller

A most humble line chart...

<?php
require_once('/HighRoller/HighRoller.php');
require_once('/HighRoller/HighRollerSeriesData.php');
require_once('/HighRoller/HighRollerLineChart.php');

$chartData = array(5324, 7534, 6234, 7234, 8251, 10324);

$linechart = new HighRollerLineChart();
$linechart->chart->renderTo = 'linechart';
$linechart->title->text = 'Line Chart';

$series1 = new HighRollerSeriesData();
$series1->addName('myData')->addData($chartData);

$linechart->addSeries($series1);
?>

<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- HighRoller: set the location of Highcharts library -->
<?php echo HighRoller::setHighChartsLocation("/highcharts/highcharts.js");?>
</head>

<body>
<div id="linechart"></div>

<script type="text/javascript">
  <?php echo $linechart->renderChart();?>
</script>
</body>

...or, render with mootools...

<?php echo $linechart->renderChart('mootools');?>

Fully Customized Multi-series Line Chart

A very customised example using dates for xAxis labels, autostep, a custom Highcharts theme and native javascript formatters.

<?php
require_once('/HighRoller/HighRoller.php');
