I have the table:

 numitens  |  data    |  email
 1         | 01/01/15 | [email protected]
 1         | 01/01/15 | [email protected]
 2         | 01/01/15 | [email protected]
 1         | 02/01/15 | [email protected]

The format you would like to display the data on the chart would be the total amount of items from the day.

Code.

If I understood your request, the most appropriate would be to count the number of items per day using SQL itself:

$SQL1 = "SELECT sum(numitens) as numitens,data FROM highchart group by data";

Once you have done this you can already plot a chart with dates on the X axis and quantities on the Y axis.

HOWEVER, if you want Highcharts to interpret your X-axis as truth dates instead of equally spaced data (if you had 3 dates 01/01/1515,02 / 01 / 2015,10 / 01/2015 they would stay equally spaced on the X-axis .... well maybe you want it yourself), you need to pass the date information like this (detail, months start from 0):

Date.UTC(2015,0,1)

And you need to put this attribute in xAxis:

type: 'datetime',
