<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jqBarGraph.1.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
// Simple bar chart
arrayOfData = new Array(
[10.3,'Jan','#222222'],
[15.2,'Feb','#7D252B'],
[13.1,'Mar','#EB9781'],
[16.3,'Apr','#FFD2B5'],

);
$('#simple-bar-chart').jqBarGraph({
data: arrayOfData, // Initialize the data
sort: 'asc', // Sorting

// Multi bar chart
arrayOfDataMulti = new Array(
[[14,44,26],'2007'],
[[18,38,38],'2008'],
[[24,32,57],'2009']

$('#multi-bar-chart').jqBarGraph({
