NAME

       Jifty::Plugin::Chart::Renderer::SimpleBars - a simple horizontal bar chart

DESCRIPTION

       This is a simple renderer for charts created both as a dead simple way of rendering
       horizontal bar charts, which can be a very simple way of rendering data, and as a
       prototype for some other work I'm thinking of doing with the chart plugin.

OPTIONS

       Of the rendering API, this only uses the first dataset given and ignores any others. It
       also fails if used for any type other than the only one it supports "horizontalbars".

       It takes the following options:

       summary
           To maximize the accessibility of your chart, set this to describe the data. This will
           set the table's summary attribute.

STYLING

       Please be aware that when using this object, you can change the bar color using CSS like
       so:

         div.simple_bars span.bar {
             background-color: black;
         }

METHODS

   init
       Tell Jifty about the CSS and JS files SimpleBars needs.

   render
       Renders a horizontal bar chart. This is done by rendering a table of HTML values, which is
       then converted to a bar chart by the Javascript added to the response during "init".

       If JavaScript is not supported by the browser, all the data is presented ina table. They
       can still read the data, but just not in the most readable form.
