jqplot: Separating ticks and series values

Question

I have a web service that sends date values (for x-axis) in one array. It sends y-axis values in another array.

Is it possible to have jqPlot create a chart with 2

Answer 1

I can not figure out a way for jqPlot to accept how you want to define your inputs (the ticks option seems to only work with numbers). I'm curious as to the "avoid the extra processing" comment. With jQuery it would be as easy as:

$.map(dateValues, 
       function(val,idx){
           return [[val,dailyValues[idx]]];
       }
);

to "merge" the two arrays into point pairs.
