Installation of FusionWidgets XT merely involves copying and pasting the SWF and JavaScript files from the package into any of your folders.

Installing FusionWidgets XT for your web application

Installation of FusionWidgets for your web application is just a two-step affair:

• Create a folder named FusionWidgets in the root of your application. Note that, it's not mandatory to name the folder as FusionWidgets or create it under root folder. However, doing this way organizes things a lot more, as all the pages within your website can now access the common set of charts.
• Copy all the SWF files from Download Package > Charts folder and now paste it in FusionWidgets folder.
• Copy the FusionCharts.js, FusionCharts.HC.js, FusionCharts.HC.Widgets.js and jquery.min.js files from the Download Package > Charts folder, and paste it in FusionWidgets folder.

Installation Complete - Yes, there's no more step involved. You're now ready to use FusionWidgets in your web application.

Installing FusionWidgets on your local machine for general charting

If you want to create charts on your local machine, follow the steps below:

• Create a folder named FusionWidgets inside your working folder. Again note that, it's not mandatory to name the folder as FusionWidgets or create it as a new folder. However, doing this way organizes things a lot more.
• Copy all the SWF files from Download Package > Charts folder and now paste it in FusionWidgets folder.
• Copy the FusionCharts.js, FusionCharts.HC.js, FusionCharts.HC.Widgets.js and jquery.min.js files from the Download Package > Charts folder, and paste it in FusionWidgets folder.
• To enable communication between Flash charts and JavaScript (like updating data, retrieving data, printing, exporting, event handling etc.) in your local machine, you need to setup Flash Player Global Security settings.

That completes the installation for FusionWidgets.

Technically speaking, the SWFs and the JavaScript files may reside anywhere on the hard disk, as long as they are accessible by whichever application/server you are using.
