I've been trying to get FusionCharts working with the commercial version and ran into a problem - charts weren't displaying at all. All I would see was a "Chart" string where the chart should have been.

After a bit of poking around I saw that there are a bunch of new JS and CSS includes on a page now. This is probably due to the new support within FusionCharts Commercial for display without Flash using JS. Current examples in the gallery have the following template:

<link href="../../Contents/assets/ui/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="../../Contents/assets/prettify/prettify.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" src="../../Charts/FusionCharts.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Contents/assets/ui/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Contents/assets/prettify/prettify.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Contents/assets/ui/js/json2.js"></script>
<!--[if IE 6]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Contents/assets/ui/js/DD_belatedPNG_0.0.8a-min.js"></script>
<script>
/* select the element name, css selector, background etc */
DD_belatedPNG.fix('img');
/* string argument can be any CSS selector */
</script>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<P align="center"></P>
<![endif]-->

I have included a patch which corrects the JS and CSS to handle much of this. There are a couple of small gotchas still. Firstly, for some reason the style.css file isn't included with the page. If I change the file name to something else, it is included. Some Drupal weirdness going on there... Secondly the patch doesn't include the IE6 PNG fix.

Hopefully it will be enough to get some people up and running.

Check that your settings are right (admin >> settings >> fustioncharts)
and that the fusionchart files are in the right place (admin >> Reports >> Status)

Yes, have checked those. I had selected Commercial option in settings and the SWF files were found OK in the report. The problem was with the JS file include. The file, "/JSClass/FusionCharts.js", was not included in my download for the commercial version. There are a bunch of new JS files which needed including as per the patch.

We may have the situation where the file structure for the commercial version has changed. I can't really confirm that though because my download is recent.

In my tests to update a site from (Commercial) version 3.2.1 to version 3.2.2 of Fusion Charts, I found that just replacing the FusionCharts folder with the newer one was not enough to get it working; after some tests, I was able to use v3.2.2 by modifying line 545 of fusioncharts.module to read:

drupal_add_js(drupal_get_path('module', 'fusioncharts') ."/$folder/Charts/FusionCharts.js", 'module');

(JSClass folder does not exist in v3.2.2 of the Commercial package).

I'm also attaching a patch in two formats (the "noprefix" mode seems to work better with drush make).
