Infinite Loop caused by data?

by **lfoust** » Mon Feb 13, 2012 9:55 am

I am hitting what appears to be an infinite loop which seems to be related to the data I am trying to render.When I run this page (with all the references in place) the browser runs indefinitely until I manually kill it. The reason I think it is related to data is because if I limit the data to just the first series then the chart renders correctly. Since I am unable to attach the html file, I'll paste the contents here:

Hi, sorry for late reply. Things like this can happen when your data are:
- not sorted by x value
- x value are repeated
In your case I suppose it's the second problem.

I think we may be encountering this problem as well. Could you please elaborate on the second condition? Can x values not be repeated between series? Or is the problem only if the data is repeated in a single series?

Yes, x value has to be unique in each series data array. I mean, this:

Code: Select all: series: [{ name: 'series 1', data: [ [1, 1], [1, 2], // this is wrong [2, 3], },{ name: 'series 2', data: [ [1, 3], // but you can use this value again in other series [2, 5], }]
