Ok, here's the problem: var data = new google.visualization.arrayToDataTable(JSON.parse(json));
First, your json is formatted as a DataTable, so you don't want to use the arrayToDataTable method. Second, the arrayToDataTable method does not use the "new" keyword, but this isn't germaine, since you don't want to use this anyway. Use the other line you commented out: var data = new google.visualization.DataTable(json); On Thursday, March 6, 2014 3:05:24 PM UTC-5, Timothy Sheils wrote: > > This is the full function.
