I've created a multi-series line chart using this bl.ocks.org code example. I've managed to recreate it on JSFiddle.
Now, I'm trying to add an x-value mouseover tooltip, which displays the a tooltip at each line when you hover its vertical position. Something like this, but for multiple lines.
I found this StackOverflow answer (it includes a JSFiddle), but I can't seem to make it work with my multiseries line chart.
svg.append("path") // this is the black vertical line to follow mouse
.attr("class","mouseLine")
.style("stroke","black")
.style("stroke-width", "1px")
.style("opacity", "0");
var mouseCircle = causation.append("g") // for each line, add group to hold text and circle
.attr("class","mouseCircle");
mouseCircle.append("circle") // add a circle to follow along path
.attr("r", 7)
.style("stroke", function(d) { console.log(d); return color(d.key); })
.style("fill","none")
.style("stroke-width", "1px");
mouseCircle.append("text")
.attr("transform", "translate(10,3)"); // text to hold coordinates
var bisect = d3.bisector(function(d) { return d.YEAR; }).right; // reusable bisect to find points before/after line
svg.append('svg:rect') // append a rect to catch mouse movements on canvas
.attr('width', width) // can't catch mouse events on a g element
.attr('height', height)
.attr('fill', 'none')
.attr('pointer-events', 'all')
.on('mouseout', function(){ // on mouse out hide line, circles and text
d3.select(".mouseLine")
.style("opacity", "0");
d3.selectAll(".mouseCircle circle")
.style("opacity", "0");
d3.selectAll(".mouseCircle text")
.style("opacity", "0");
})
.on('mouseover', function(){ // on mouse in show line, circles and text
d3.select(".mouseLine")
.style("opacity", "1");
d3.selectAll(".mouseCircle circle")
.style("opacity", "1");
d3.selectAll(".mouseCircle text")
.style("opacity", "1");
})
.on('mousemove', function() { // mouse moving over canvas
d3.select(".mouseLine")
.attr("d", function(){
yRange = y.range(); // range of y axis
var xCoor = d3.mouse(this)[0]; // mouse position in x
var xDate = x.invert(xCoor); // date corresponding to mouse x
d3.selectAll('.mouseCircle') // for each circle group
.each(function(d,i){
var rightIdx = bisect(data[1].values, xDate); // find date in data that right off mouse
var interSect = get_line_intersection(xCoor, // get the intersection of our vertical line and the data line
yRange[0],
xCoor,
yRange[1],
x(data[i].values[rightIdx-1].YEAR),
y(data[i].values[rightIdx-1].VALUE),
x(data[i].values[rightIdx].YEAR),
y(data[i].values[rightIdx].VALUE));
d3.select(this) // move the circle to intersection
.attr('transform', 'translate(' + interSect.x + ',' + interSect.y + ')');
d3.select(this.children[1]) // write coordinates out
.text(xDate.toLocaleDateString() + "," + y.invert(interSect.y).toFixed(0));
});
return "M"+ xCoor +"," + yRange[0] + "L" + xCoor + "," + yRange[1]; // position vertical line
});
});
// from here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/1968345/16363
function get_line_intersection(p0_x, p0_y, p1_x, p1_y,
p2_x, p2_y, p3_x, p3_y)
{
var rV = {};
var s1_x, s1_y, s2_x, s2_y;
s1_x = p1_x - p0_x; s1_y = p1_y - p0_y;
s2_x = p3_x - p2_x; s2_y = p3_y - p2_y;
var s, t;
s = (-s1_y * (p0_x - p2_x) + s1_x * (p0_y - p2_y)) / (-s2_x * s1_y + s1_x * s2_y);
t = ( s2_x * (p0_y - p2_y) - s2_y * (p0_x - p2_x)) / (-s2_x * s1_y + s1_x * s2_y);
if (s >= 0 && s <= 1 && t >= 0 && t <= 1)
{
// Collision detected
rV.x = p0_x + (t * s1_x);
rV.y = p0_y + (t * s1_y);
}
return rV;
}
So, to put it simply, I want to combine my line chart JSFiddle with this tooltip JSFiddle. Does anybody know how to do this? Or is there an easier way to create a tooltip like this? Any help is appreciated!

The question you referenced I answered back in April. Since then, I've learned a bit more about SVG and d3, so I'll let this serve as an update to that answer.
Note, I borrowed a bit of code from @Duopixel's excellent code sample here.
Here's the commented particulars:
// append a g for all the mouse over nonsense
var mouseG = svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "mouse-over-effects");
// this is the vertical line
mouseG.append("path")
.attr("class", "mouse-line")
.style("stroke", "black")
.style("stroke-width", "1px")
.style("opacity", "0");
// keep a reference to all our lines
var lines = document.getElementsByClassName('line');
// here's a g for each circle and text on the line
var mousePerLine = mouseG.selectAll('.mouse-per-line')
.data(cities)
.enter()
.append("g")
.attr("class", "mouse-per-line");
// the circle
mousePerLine.append("circle")
.attr("r", 7)
.style("stroke", function(d) {
return color(d.name);
})
.style("fill", "none")
.style("stroke-width", "1px")
.style("opacity", "0");
// the text
mousePerLine.append("text")
.attr("transform", "translate(10,3)");
// rect to capture mouse movements
mouseG.append('svg:rect')
.attr('width', width)
.attr('height', height)
.attr('fill', 'none')
.attr('pointer-events', 'all')
.on('mouseout', function() { // on mouse out hide line, circles and text
d3.select(".mouse-line")
.style("opacity", "0");
d3.selectAll(".mouse-per-line circle")
.style("opacity", "0");
d3.selectAll(".mouse-per-line text")
.style("opacity", "0");
})
.on('mouseover', function() { // on mouse in show line, circles and text
d3.select(".mouse-line")
.style("opacity", "1");
d3.selectAll(".mouse-per-line circle")
.style("opacity", "1");
d3.selectAll(".mouse-per-line text")
.style("opacity", "1");
})
.on('mousemove', function() { // mouse moving over canvas
var mouse = d3.mouse(this);
// move the vertical line
d3.select(".mouse-line")
.attr("d", function() {
var d = "M" + mouse[0] + "," + height;
d += " " + mouse[0] + "," + 0;
return d;
});
// position the circle and text
d3.selectAll(".mouse-per-line")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) {
console.log(width/mouse[0])
var xDate = x.invert(mouse[0]),
bisect = d3.bisector(function(d) { return d.date; }).right;
idx = bisect(d.values, xDate);
// since we are use curve fitting we can't relay on finding the points like I had done in my last answer
// this conducts a search using some SVG path functions
// to find the correct position on the line
// from http://bl.ocks.org/duopixel/3824661
var beginning = 0,
end = lines[i].getTotalLength(),
target = null;
while (true){
target = Math.floor((beginning + end) / 2);
pos = lines[i].getPointAtLength(target);
if ((target === end || target === beginning) && pos.x !== mouse[0]) {
break;
}
if (pos.x > mouse[0]) end = target;
else if (pos.x < mouse[0]) beginning = target;
else break; //position found
}
// update the text with y value
d3.select(this).select('text')
.text(y.invert(pos.y).toFixed(2));
// return position
return "translate(" + mouse[0] + "," + pos.y +")";
});
});
