The example file is here.

<script>
    window.onload = function ()
    {
        var data = [41,37,16,3,3];
    
        var rose = new RGraph.Rose('myRose', data);
        rose.Set('chart.labels', ['MSIE 7 (41%)',
                                  'MSIE 6 (37%)',
                                  'Firefox (16%)',
                                  'Safari (3%)',
                                  'Other (3%)']);
        rose.Draw();
    }
</script>

Default: null
