$(document).ready(function() { var title = { text: 'Average Temperature in Cities' }; var subtitle = { text: 'Source: .com' }; var xAxis = { categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'] }; var yAxis = { title: { text: 'Temperature (xB0C)' }, plotLines: [{ value: 0, width: 1, color: '#808080' }] }; var tooltip = { valueSuffix: 'xB0C' } var legend = { layout: 'vertical', align: 'right', verticalAlign: 'middle', borderWidth: 0 }; var series = [ { name: 'Tokyo', data: [7.0, 6.9, 9.5, 14.5, 18.2, 21.5, 25.2, 26.5, 23.3, 18.3, 13.9, 9.6] }, { name: 'New York', data: [-0.2, 0.8, 5.7, 11.3, 17.0, 22.0, 24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 14.1, 8.6, 2.5] }, { name: 'London', data: [3.9, 4.2, 5.7, 8.5, 11.9, 15.2, 17.0, 16.6, 14.2, 10.3, 6.6, 4.8] } ]; var json = {}; json.title = title; json.subtitle = subtitle; json.xAxis = xAxis; json.yAxis = yAxis; json.tooltip = tooltip; json.legend = legend; json.series = series; $('#container').highcharts(json);});
