I'm attempting to combine a couple of different chart demos from Highcharts.
My examples are: Data classes and popup and Small US with data labels
I want the map from the first with the popup feature of the second. I need to connect the map to my own google spreadsheet but for now I'm just trying to get the data from the first example to work.
This is what I have so far but can't seem to get any data in the map. I thought I had a joinBy
problem, and I may still, but when I set joinBy
to null I thought "the map items are joined by their position in the array", yet nothing happened.

UPDATE:
I wanted to share with everyone my final solution. Although Ondkloss did a magnificent job answering my question the popup feature still didn't work and this is because I forgot to include the jQuery for the .dialog
call. Once I included that I had an empty popup with a highchart error 17, this is because the highmaps.js code doesn't include the pie chart class. So I had to add the highcharts.js
code and include map.js
module afterward. You can see my final jsfiddle here.
Thanks again to Ondkloss for the excellent answer!
