-About
------
-
-Flot is a Javascript plotting library for jQuery. Read more at the
-website:
-
- http://code.google.com/p/flot/
-
-Take a look at the examples linked from above, they should give a good
-impression of what Flot can do and the source code of the examples is
-probably the fastest way to learn how to use Flot.
-
-
-Installation
-------------
-
-Just include the Javascript file after you've included jQuery.
-
-Generally, all browsers that support the HTML5 canvas tag are
-supported.
-
-For support for Internet Explorer < 9, you can use Excanvas, a canvas
-emulator; this is used in the examples bundled with Flot. You just
-include the excanvas script like this:
-
- <!--[if lte IE 8]><script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="excanvas.min.js"></script><![endif]-->
-
-If it's not working on your development IE 6.0, check that it has
-support for VML which Excanvas is relying on. It appears that some
-stripped down versions used for test environments on virtual machines
-lack the VML support.
-
-You can also try using Flashcanvas (see
-http://code.google.com/p/flashcanvas/), which uses Flash to do the
-emulation. Although Flash can be a bit slower to load than VML, if
-you've got a lot of points, the Flash version can be much faster
-overall. Flot contains some wrapper code for activating Excanvas which
-Flashcanvas is compatible with.
-
-You need at least jQuery 1.2.6, but try at least 1.3.2 for interactive
-charts because of performance improvements in event handling.
-
-
-Basic usage
------------
-
-Create a placeholder div to put the graph in:
-
- <div id="placeholder"></div>
-
-You need to set the width and height of this div, otherwise the plot
-library doesn't know how to scale the graph. You can do it inline like
-this:
-
- <div id="placeholder" style="width:600px;height:300px"></div>
-
-You can also do it with an external stylesheet. Make sure that the
-placeholder isn't within something with a display:none CSS property -
-in that case, Flot has trouble measuring label dimensions which
-results in garbled looks and might have trouble measuring the
-placeholder dimensions which is fatal (it'll throw an exception).
-
-Then when the div is ready in the DOM, which is usually on document
-ready, run the plot function:
-
- $.plot($("#placeholder"), data, options);
-
-Here, data is an array of data series and options is an object with
-settings if you want to customize the plot. Take a look at the
-examples for some ideas of what to put in or look at the reference
-in the file "API.txt". Here's a quick example that'll draw a line from
-(0, 0) to (1, 1):
-
- $.plot($("#placeholder"), [ [[0, 0], [1, 1]] ], { yaxis: { max: 1 } });
-
-The plot function immediately draws the chart and then returns a plot
-object with a couple of methods.
-
-
-What's with the name?
----------------------
-
-First: it's pronounced with a short o, like "plot". Not like "flawed".
-
-So "Flot" rhymes with "plot".
-
-And if you look up "flot" in a Danish-to-English dictionary, some up
-the words that come up are "good-looking", "attractive", "stylish",
-"smart", "impressive", "extravagant". One of the main goals with Flot
-is pretty looks.
