For catching errors, try using the Chrome developer's console (open the
page in Chrome, use the menu or hit ctrl+shift+j to open the developer's
console). If there is a syntax error or the code throws an error, it will
show up there.
LineCharts should work fine for this. You can control the thickness of
each line via the series.<series index>.lineWidth option, which takes an
integer value for the thickness of the line in pixels. If the line you
want to make thicker is the first data series, then the option might look
something like this:
series: {
0: {
lineWidth: 3
}
}
To deal with overlapping points, you can set the focusTarget option to
"category", which loads all values at a given x-axis point into the tooltip.
Here's an example incorporating both of
these: http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/ryZNm/
