Charts are defined in a dedicated [[Charts Definition Language (CDL)|Charts Definition Language]] and compiled into a file containing both the HTML/javascript menu infrastructure as well as the Highcharts javascript code to create the charts. Data - JSON files as produced by CumulusMX - is assumed to be present in the directory  from where the page is called.

There are principally no translations associated with these charts because the user writes his own text (titles), the Y-axis have been translated already through the old system and only when new axis arrive new translations will be needed.
The only exceptions are the legend words as those are formed by the reserved words of the plotvariables. If the users wishes to translate those (give another wording) he can find those terms in the language file under the section Compiler.
