I just wrote an article for THE VIEW (www.eview.com) about charting and the xCharting control, and in that article I described how to enable a legend for a chart, too. 

 

In case you don't have a THE VIEW subscription, here is the short version:

 

- open the xCharting control 

 

- below the xp:div id="ynchartcontainer" add another div:

 

---

 

<xp:div id="ynchartlegend"></xp:div>"

 

---

 

and find the xp:scriptBlock tag

 

- edit the javascript code, after line 8 add the following:

 

---

 

var legendid = getClientId("ynchartlegend");

 

---

 

- find the line "yn_charts_render()" at the bottom of the code. Before that line, add:

 

---

 

r += ' var ynchartlegend = new dojox.charting.widget.Legend({chart: ynchart}, "'+legendid+'");'+@NewLine();

 

---

 

 

 

that should do the trick.
