Integration with JQuery

If you are using JQuery library, you can render the Gantt chart on a page using a usual syntax.

A standard Gantt chart with JQuery can be initialized as in:

A Gantt chart initialized with JQuery

$(".mygantt").dhx_gantt({
    data:demo_tasks,
    scales:[
        { unit:"year",step:1,format:"%Y"}
    ]
});
$("#gantt1").dhx_gantt().parse(tasksA);

<div class="mygantt" id='gantt1' style='width:100%; height:30%;'></div>

where:

".mygantt" - a jQuery compatible CSS selector of the container, in which the Gantt chart will be created
dhx_gantt() method instantiates dhtmlxGantt. As a parameter the method takes a configuration object:
- data - (object) a data set that will be loaded to the Gantt chart
- scales - (array) an array with configuration settings of the time scale

A Gantt chart, initialized through jQuery call, uses the same configuration and API as the standard (initialized through JavaScript) Gantt chart does.
