Add a hyperlink to stockChart in highcharts - highcharts

Question

I am looking for the options to add a hyperlink to the stock chart. So that a user can click anywhere on the chart and redirect to another page.
Not on the series, I would like to add hyperlink on the chart itself.

Answer 1

You need to call function on your highchart container div.You can use following function.
$("#container").on("click", function(){
window.open('http://google.com', '_blank');
// You can also use if not cross domain request
//window.location.href='http://google.com';
});
Refer this fiddle link for example

Answer 2

Simply make your rendering element an <a> element with a href attribute pointing to where you wish to take users (just like any other hyperlink). Just make sure that this <a> element has a display property set as block:
$(function () {
Highcharts.chart('container', {
title: {
text: 'Monthly Average Temperature',
x: -20 //center
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: WorldClimate.com',
x: -20
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun',
'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Temperature (°C)'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: '#808080'
}]
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: '°C'
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'middle',
borderWidth: 0
},
series: [{
name: 'Tokyo',
data: [7.0, 6.9, 9.5, 14.5, 18.2, 21.5, 25.2, 26.5, 23.3, 18.3, 13.9, 9.6]
}, {
name: 'New York',
data: [-0.2, 0.8, 5.7, 11.3, 17.0, 22.0, 24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 14.1, 8.6, 2.5]
}, {
name: 'Berlin',
data: [-0.9, 0.6, 3.5, 8.4, 13.5, 17.0, 18.6, 17.9, 14.3, 9.0, 3.9, 1.0]
}, {
name: 'London',
data: [3.9, 4.2, 5.7, 8.5, 11.9, 15.2, 17.0, 16.6, 14.2, 10.3, 6.6, 4.8]
}]
});
});
#container {
display: block;
}
