Thanks Sunil, With a little server side code, I was able to do what I want with xValueType.
Thanks for providing this wonderful plot package. Saves me a LOT of work!!

Well, according to jsonlint.com
[{“x”:”\/Date(1370439429173)\/”,”y”:10},{“x”:”\/Date(1370070000000)\/”,”y”:30}] is valid
[{“x”: new Date(1370439429173),”y”:10},{“x”:new Date(1370070000000),”y”:30}] is NOT valid Parse error on line 3: … { “x”: newDate(137043942917 ———————^ Expecting ‘STRING’, ‘NUMBER’, ‘NULL’, ‘TRUE’, ‘FALSE’, ‘{‘, ‘[‘
If I use that string above, AJAX throws a parsererror.
I can put quotes around “new Date” to avoid the parser error. But then nothing is plotted.
Both json strings below give a blank chart. [{“x”:”Date(1370470421781)”,”y”:10},{“x”:”Date(1370070000000)”,”y”:30}] [{“x”:”new Date(1370470355535)”,”y”:10},{“x”:”new Date(1370070000000)”,”y”:30}]
Would you please look into this further and make sure that CanvasJS is handling the json object from AJAX properly.
Thanks!
