Finance Chart Track Line (Web)




NOTE: This section describes Finance Chart Track Line for web applications only. For Windows applications, please refer to Finance Chart Track Line (Windows).

This sample program demonstrates a track cursor for a finance chart programmed with the following features:

On the server side, the code draws the finance chart with the legend box set to transparent (so that the default legend box is not displayed), It outputs both the image and the Javascript Chart Model of the chart.

On the browser side, in the window onload event handler, Javascript is used to set up the event handler for the MouseMovePlotArea, TouchStartPlotArea, TouchMovePlotArea , ChartMove and Now events. The event handler calls trackFinance to draw the track cursor.

The trackFinance Javascript function is the routine that draws the track cursor. Its key elements are:
