Does anybody know how I can integrate highcharts into a dojo front end? The error message I receive with this code is...
Uncaught ReferenceError: Highcharts is not defined at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> dojo.html:24:27
Eventually I will have to get this working for the ESRI web app builder which is built on dojo so I am hoping the dojo versions are the same. Would somebody let me know how to check that as well? I know an adaptor was made for this in 2014 (https://github.com/ben8p/highcharts.com-dojo-adapter) however I could not find documentation on how to use it and the owner of this repo was unable to offer further assistance as they have not worked on this project for some time.
Cheers and thanks in advance

Using dojo with Highcharts is not officially supported. It seems to work with Highcharts 5, but It is always recommended to use the latest version.
<script src="https://code.highcharts.com/5/highcharts.js"></script>
Demo:
https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/wy3mu4pt/
Dojo adapter for highcharts is one of our community wrappers. As I noticed in the github project it is tested with Highcharts 3.0.7 version, so it might not be compatible with our latest highcharts version as well. The only possibility to get the answers to the specific dojo adapter's questions is to contact the author.

How to reference external javascript files from a SharePoint 2010 Content Editor Web Part

I'm trying to set up a basic HighCharts example using a SharePoint 2010 Content Editor Web Part, but I get the error message "Object doesn't support property or method 'highcharts'". I'm using the example content directly from the highcharts download. For some reason, the script at the top of the code is not being loaded or I'm not able to access it. I'm guessing that it has something to do with the way sharepoint loads other scripts, but I'm not sure.
<script src="https://teamOne.com/sites/sandbox/mmg/christo/Shared%20Documents/HiChartsApp/js/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://teamOne.com/sites/sandbox/mmg/christo/Shared%20Documents/HiChartsApp/js/highcharts.src.js"></script>
<div id="charts_holder">
<h2>HiCharts Test Page</h2>
<p>This is where the charts live</p>
</div>
<div id="container" style="width:100%; height:400px;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'bar'
},
title: {
text: 'Fruit Consumption'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Apples', 'Bananas', 'Oranges']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Fruit eaten'
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Jane',
data: [1, 0, 4]
}, {
name: 'John',
data: [5, 7, 3]
}]
});
});
</script>
I haven't had much luck with Sharepoint loading other JS files from a content editor web part, but I'm hoping someone will have a good suggestion. Thanks in advance!

Highcharts not working after jquery upgrade

we have some graphics using
highcharts 2.5.1 back in 2011 bundled with Jquery 1.4.2
and everything works OK but we save some other javascript plugins and they we need to upgrade them as well latest releases have some bug fixed and we want to take advantage of them and they also need Jquery upgrade as well but when i upgrade to latest jquery version
jquery-1.11.1.min then highcharts seems not longer works??
what can i do to make it works as using JQuery 1.4.2
sample code

<script type="text/javascript">
var chart;
$(document).ready(function() {

yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Total fruit consumption'

legend: {
backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
reversed: true

tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return ''+
this.series.name +': '+ this.y +'';

},
plotOptions: {
series: {
stacking: 'normal'
}
},
series: [{
name: 'John',
data: [5, 3, 4, 7, 2]
}, {
name: 'Jane',
data: [2, 2, 3, 2, 1]
}, {
name: 'Joe',
data: [3, 4, 4, 2, 5]
}]
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container" style="width: 800px; height: 400px; margin: 0 auto"></div>
</body>
generates the right output
if i change the JQuery version like this
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
generates something like.
i see something like
also tested con JQuery 1.10
Check the compatibility page of highcharts
jQuery
1.4.3 - 1.10.x for all browsers.
2.0.x for modern browsers.
Try using 1.10.x if you can. If you still see the issue, I would suggest create a jsFiddle demonstration of the issue & report here. SO Experts or Highcharts support team can assist you while you are using an officially supported version of jQuery.
EDIT
Your code works well, check out # http://jsfiddle.net/jugal/9g3679zk/
You may also need to upgrade the Highcharts js
EDIT 2
Using Highcharts 2.1.5 # http://jsfiddle.net/jugal/9g3679zk/1/ The charts don't load as you have showed, on resizing window it does redraw and chart comes up.
Upgrading to 2.2 seems to fix it # http://jsfiddle.net/jugal/9g3679zk/2/ You most likely should be at be able to upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 with your existing license.

invalid character error with jquery and highcharts SCRIPT1014: Invalid character

Trying to do a really basic highchart, but I keep getting the error: "JavaScript critical error at line 42, column 12. SCRIPT1014: Invalid character. I have included jQuery in the header so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Testing with IE.

I got a special character '?' when I copy your code just after the last semicolon.
Try to copy your code in a text editor (notepad++ for me), remove this character and copy again your page.
It has worked for me.
I took out the very last ";" in the jQuery block of code and it worked. Weird...
In the future I advice to use jslint which check your syntax.

In the example on highcharts there is a class defined in the div, while in the code there is an id referenced.
Changing #container to .container fixed it.
The firefox error console showed a #13 error which gave the clue to the mystery.
BTW, had to load jquery and highcharts before the highchart example script.
May be something is messing with jquery standard variable. Try to add $ = jQuery.noConflict() in the beginning of the script. And give more specific information, like; browser, jsfiddle, error if any

dojox chart highlight effect not working

I've created a simple column chart using dojo version 1.8 and I want to add a highlight effect on mouseover for each column.
Dojo's dojox charting API provides a nice class called Highlight that you should be able to instantiate injecting a chart instance and a plot name as below...
new Highlight(ChartInstance, "plotName");
Here is the docs to support this:
http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.8/dojox/charting.html#highlight
http://dojotoolkit.org/api/1.8/dojox/charting/action2d/Highlight
http://dojotoolkit.org/documentation/tutorials/1.8/charting/
Now I've followed this syntax but havent been able to get the effect to work, and no scripting errors are being reported in firebug. here is my test page...
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Test chart</title>
<script>
var dojoConfig = {
baseUrl: "./",
async: true,
isDebug: true,
parseOnLoad: true,
gfxRenderer: "svg, canvas, silverlight",//svg is preferred chart renderer
//here are the packages dojo will be aware of and related js files
packages: [
//dojo specific packages
{name: "dojo", location: "libs/dojo"},
{name: "dojox", location: "libs/dojox"}
]
};
</script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- create the chart div-->
<div id="chartContent"></div>
<!-- load dojo and provide config via header script -->
<script src="libs/dojo/dojo.js"></script>
<script>
require(["dojo/parser", "dojo/domReady!"]);
require([
"dojox/charting/Chart",
"dojox/charting/themes/Claro",
"dojox/charting/plot2d/Columns",
"dojox/charting/axis2d/Default",
"dojox/charting/action2d/Highlight",
"dojo/domReady!"
],
function (Chart, Theme, ChartType, Default, Highlight){
chartData = [
{ x: 1, y: 19021 },
{ x: 2, y: 12837 },
{ x: 3, y: 12378 },
{ x: 4, y: 21882 },
{ x: 5, y: 17654 },
{ x: 6, y: 15833 },
{ x: 7, y: 16122 }
];
var chart = new Chart("chartContent", {title: "test bar chart"});
chart.setTheme(Theme);
chart.addPlot("barPlot", {type:ChartType, interpolate: false, tension: "S", markers: true, hAxis: "x", vAxis: "y"});
chart.addAxis("x", {title: "horizontal axis", titleOrientation: "away", min:0});
chart.addAxis("y", {title: "vertical axis", vertical: true});
chart.addSeries("bar series", chartData, {plot: "barPlot"});
new Highlight(chart, "barPlot");
chart.render();
}
);
</script>
</body>
</html>
To run the page you'll need to adjust the dojo and dojox locations to match your own set up, you can also just point to the online versions of them by swapping in the full URL for each in the config.
When you load it in the browser, you should see a column chart, and notice that the highlight instance has had no effect on the mouseover for each column.
Any ideas, perhaps I've missed something simple here?
A lot later, but still, here is what I figured:
Highlight is not working with GRADIENTS as fills.
I'm assuming this comes from the fact that Highlight will be checking what colors are used, and if lighter then 50%, uses the lighter color... When the theme includes a gradient, it returns two values and it breaks.
I stumble on the same issue while using a custom theme with gradients, removing the gradients and using solid colors solved the problem.
So any theme with a gradient is not going to support Highlight.
Ok I've now discovered the problem, and it was fairly annoying to be honest!
it was all to do with the Claro theme, I changed this to one of the others, in this case I used the MiamiNice theme, and would you believe it, the mouseovers now work!!!!
Code snippet for those that are interested:
require([
"dojox/charting/Chart",
"dojox/charting/themes/MiamiNice", <-- here it used to end /Claro
I'll put this on the dojo community forum.
