var data is not passed to ofc2 in AJAX success callback (Error 2032)

[produnis]

Dear folks,
I get an Error #2032 when I try to embed an ofc via a $AJAX-success-callback

This is my javascript:

 function open_flash_chart_data(){
      return JSON.stringify(data);
      }

  function plot_graph(theitems, trackCount){
      $.ajax({ url: 'graph_include.php',
               type: 'POST',
               data: { items:  theitems
                },
          dataType: "json",  
          success: function(returnData){
          // place the raw graph data in the data variable 
                    var data=returnData;
                    //alert(JSON.stringify(data));
                     swfobject.embedSWF('open-flash-chart.swf',"graph"+trackCount, "650", "200", "9.0.0");
         },
         error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
             alert(XMLHttpRequest.responseText);
         }
       }); // end ajax query
  }

I don't know why this gives me an Error 2032, because var data has valid data.

In graph_include.php, which is called by AJAX, I write the echo $chart->toPrettyString(); into a file called "plot.json", like this:

 $fh = fopen("plot.json", 'w');    
 $chartjson = $chart->toPrettyString(); 
 fwrite($fh, $chartjson);
 fclose($fh);

Then a changed the success callback into this, in order to fetch data from plot.json:

  success: function(returnData){
     // graph_include.php writes the $chart->toPrettyString();
     // into file "plot.json" inside of the track_anything folder
     // we just fetch these data from that file, as
     // var data=returnData
     // don't seem to work here
     // (open-flash-chart won't find var data for some reason)
         swfobject.embedSWF('open-flash-chart.swf', 
         "graph"+trackCount, "650", "200", "9.0.0","",{"data-file":"plot.json"});

which works without any problems.

Instead of writing something to the filesystem, I would be very interested in a correct AJAX-Solution, passing var data directly to ofc2.

I figured out that this will help:

outside of the ajax function, declair a variable like this:

 var flashvars = {};

inside the AJAX-success-call, write:

 success: function(returnData){
      //we need to set both,
      // data and flashvars.ofc
      data=returnData;
      flashvars.ofc = returnData;
      swfobject.embedSWF('openflashchart/open-flash-chart.swf', 
      "graph"+trackCount, "650", "200", "9.0.0","",flashvars);

never mind
;)
