Highcharts - making a point clickable?

Question

I've searched and tested several solutions but it's really hard to find an answer to this seemingly easy problem:

I want to make points on this chart clickable (http://jsfiddle.net/a6yL8/)

        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],
            url: [http://test.com/, http://test2.com/]

So far, I've only managed to make the values on the x axis clickable ( by adding them as a simple html a href code )

But I am unable to make the points on the chart clickable?

It's an easy question but nowhere could I find an answer and the AJAX example by the highcharts creators seems to be bugged.

Could anyone please help me?

Answer 1

to make the points on the chart clickable set allowPointSelect as true

plotOptions:{
  series:{
    allowPointSelect: true
  }
}

now you handle the click event or selection event from the

plotOptions:{
  series:{
    point:{
      events:{
        select: function(e){
          //your logic here
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

I've updated your fiddle here http://jsfiddle.net/a6yL8/1/

                            }
                        }
                    }
                }

        },
