I have tried to replicate this but have been unsuccessful.

I am using FusionMaps, and have included the following XML (using dataURL method):

Map entities have toolText="line one line two"

...but line breaks do not render. They are being parsed, however, because my toolTip renders as "line one line two", without the tag (which does display if I set isHTML="0").

toolText=" bold text " correctly renders as bold text. and tags, however, do not produce any effect.

Help!

Ok, now I understand. I did not require the use of the '%' character for the code I mentioned. To use the '%' the way you are referring, Pallav, yes that is how I would need to use it. However, the '%' character in the code I provided above is used to encode the '&' character where by '&' --> %26.

This allowed me to use the above method to put HTML in my trendlines using the dataXML method and not the dataURL method.

TO use % in dataXML method, encode it as %25

If you want to use the dataXML method, I found that you need to URL encode the ampersand( & ) :

%26lt;br%26gt;

instead of:

It works for me, but I know that FusionCharts also does not like the '%' operator in the XML, so you may still receive an 'Invalid XML Data' error with this method. I just know it worked for me. I'm using C# with ASP.NET 2.0 and I'm randomly generating my XML as strings in the Code-Behind before I push out to the client.

Hope this helps...

If you're using the dataXML method, there would be a conflict between the < specified in the XML, the actual XML element lt opening sign and the HTML lt sign to embed the chart.

So, you need to use this in dataURL method.

I'm using the dataXML method. Why would that make a difference?

Against which chart are you using this XML code?

You need to use dataURL method and specify the code as:

[code] [/code]

Okay, so the code / code thing doesn't work (or at least not as I expected). So here's the offending line with the brackets removed:

set value='1.8' toolText='11.2s, 1.8MPH, 3526.0RPM, 95.3%25'

Well, let's try inserting the code again ;-)

I've just tried a multi-line tooltext, and that doesn't work either. There are no examples of such in the galleries, so there's no working example to learn from. I get "invalid XML" if I try to insert 

Here's a snippet from the XML:

Removal of fixes it up.

Here is a sample xml document.

Pallav — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 09:14:29 GMT

Can you please send your XML file as attachment?

Simply does not work. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I am using a scatter chart (scatter.swf)?

RE: How to insert line breaks on displayValue attribute of line (trendline)

Pallav — Sun, 07 Jan 2007 03:59:40 GMT

Please try this. It works for us here:

[code]<trendlines>
<line startValue='1' valueOnRight='1' displayValue='This is line 1. I want this on line 2.' />
</trendlines>
<styles>
<definition>
<style name='myHTMLFont' type='font' isHTML='1' />
</definition>
<application>
<apply toObject='TRENDVALUES' styles='myHTMLFont' />
</application>
</styles>[/code]

Thank Pallev, but I already tried that. Does not render the as HTML.

I did creat the style definition from the demo code and applied it to both TRENDLINES and TRENDVALUES with no luck.

You can use the same concept as explained at http://www.fusioncharts.com/FusionCharts/Docs/Contents/TTip_Lines.html

How to insert line breaks on displayValue attribute of line (trendline)

Dan — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 14:35:16 GMT

I have a rather long displayValue for a horizontal trend line. Is there a way to insert a line break?

For example:

[code]<line startValue='1' valueOnRight='1' displayValue='This is line 1. I want this on line 2.' />[/code]
