OK, I have done this again. I am sure there are many ways to improve this, especially my hacky way of building the JSON data string, but this is what I did, and it works:
1. Download Highcharts, unzip, and move highcharts.js into public/javascripts 2. Download jquery-1.7.2.min.js into publc/javascripts 3. In the page where the graph will appear, include the two scripts by inserting these lines at the top of the DRYML file: <append-scripts:> <javascript name="jquery-1.7.2.min.js"/> <javascript name="highcharts.js"/> </append-scripts:> 4. Build a tag for the graph. Here's sample graph with dummy literal data: http://pastie.org/4164150 If you call this tag on the page where the scripts are included, a pie chart should appear. 5. Here is a more complicated sample drawing from real data. a. First the tag definition: http://pastie.org/4164177 b. The method that builds the data series. This is a pretty complicated example, but I hope it gets the idea across. http://pastie.org/4164185 Hope that helps someone. I will do my best to answer questions.
