jQPlot - remove vertical grid lines

charts, javascript, jqplot, jquery

Solution

I figured it out. You can apply `showGridline` to a single axis by doing the following:

axes:{
    xaxis: {
       tickOptions:{
          showGridline: false
       }
    }
}

Problem

I am using jqPlot as my charting framework and have numerous charts in my application, primarily line and stacked bar charts. I now have a requirement to only show the horizonal grid lines on these charts and do not see any options in jqPlot to do this. There is a `showGridline` option but that disables the grid lines entirely. Is it possible to remove only the vertical grid lines in jqPlot and continue to show the horizontal ones?
