I am attempting to use the highcharts javascript library to load charts using this function:
function create_chart(success, failed, pending)
{
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: graph ,
margin: [5, 5, 5, 5]
},
title: {
text: Message Sending Status
},
plotArea: {
shadow: null,
borderWidth: null,
backgroundColor: null
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return <b> + this.point.name + </b>: + this.y + % ;
}
},
plotOptions: {
pie: {
allowPointSelect: true,
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
if (this.y > 5) return this.point.name;
},
color: white ,
style: {
font: 13px Trebuchet MS, Verdana, sans-serif
}
}
}
},
legend: {
layout: vertical ,
style: {
left: auto ,
bottom: auto ,
right: 50px ,
top: 100px
}
},
series: [{
type: pie ,
name: Message Status ,
data: [
[ Successful Messages , success],
[ Failed Messages , failed],
[ Pending Messages , pending]
]
}]
});
}
however this locks the browser up
i have narrowed down the problem to
data: [
[ Successful Messages , success],
[ Failed Messages , failed],
[ Pending Messages , pending]
]
as if i use numbers in place of the variables (i.e replace success with 12 ect) then it works fine
this is confusing as using console.log(success) returns 12, so what could be causing this?
