Use something like:
var line1 = [['This is '.$value, $value], ...]
And name your plot as:
var plot1 = $.jqplot('chart1', [line1], { title: 'Title of your plot', series:[{renderer:$.jqplot.BarRenderer}], axesDefaults: { tickRenderer: $.jqplot.CanvasAxisTickRenderer , tickOptions: { angle: -30, fontSize: '10pt' } }, axes: { xaxis: { renderer: $.jqplot.CategoryAxisRenderer } } });
