Usage

The cfgraph tag enables you to graph data that is not from a query. You can use hard-coded data, variables, and other dynamically generated data. You can combine these data points with query data in a graph by including cfgraphdata tags in a cfgraph tag that specifies a query.

Example

This example sets the income values of four departments. A bar chart uses cfgraphdata tags to specify the data points to chart.

<cfset NewIncome = 1200000>

<cfset UsedIncom = 870000>
<cfset Leasingincome = 930000>
<cfset ServiceIncome = 760000>

<cfgraph type = "bar" title = "Income by Department">
  <cfgraphdata label = "New Vehicle Sales" value = NewIncome>
  <cfgraphdata label = "Used Vehicle Sales" value = UsedIncome>
  <cfgraphdata label = "Leasing" value = LeasingIncome>
  <cfgraphdata label = "Service" value = ServiceIncome>
</cfgraph>
