Embeddable Acupuncture Chart
Rootdown's embeddable acupuncture charts make it easy to put a detailed acupuncture chart onto any web page.
Example 1. Simple Chart
The code below will produce an acupunture chart containing all recognized points and meridians, showing the default settings.
Note the width and height settings, which can be changed to alter the size of the chart on the screen.

Example 2. Viewing a Single Meridian

Example 3. Viewing a Single Point
The code below will display a chart centered and zoomed into a single acupuncture point (Lung 7, in this example).
Note the slightly different syntax from the meridian example above.
The desired point is requested using the meridian abbreviation from the chart above, along with the index of the
point in question.
