Hi. I want to use MotionChart to display data contained in CSV files. If I have these files locally on my server, is there any way to have javascript access them (read the files into strings), so that I can parse them and feed them into my google.visualization.DataTable () object using the api?
Currently, I have the motionChart visualization running in the following way: I have just pasted the text files into my source as multi-line string literals (replacing carriage returns with "\n"), and I wrote some code to parse these and insert them into the google.visualization.DataTable() object. I want to allow this code to access CSV data that is Not located within the source. I am aware that there is a package available which allows me to build a Google data source which parses CSV data and sends it to my viz app. However, in order to set this up I need to make a servelet and do all kinds of crap, and I was just wondering if there was an easier way (which allows me to not do all this servlet stuff). Thanks a lot! -Wai Lee --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Visualization API" group.
