I think the current implementation might not be complete. I
once wanted to put several mouse-able plots in one page, so
I tried to modify the javascript bundled with gnuplot. I
have a test page on
http://xiaoyong.unixcab.org/gptest/plot_sin.xhtml
I haven't finished polishing the code, because I soon
realized some of my audiences use IE exclusively. The code
should be able to do everything promised in the gnuplot menu
page and you can put several mouse-able plots in one page.
I don't have time to finish the code and integrate it back
into gnuplot. I hope someone find it useful and wish to do
the hard work to get it included in the main gnuplot
distribution.
The code is a derived work, so shares the same copyright as
gnuplot. All I did is enclosing all the functions and
variables in reasonably separated closures. I would like to
help to get it integrated into the main gnuplot
distribution. I don't know too much about the internals of
gnuplot, but if anyone has question about the bits of
javascript I wrote, please feel free to ask.
