I think it may have worked. Not really sure since I can't debug javascript code in a View (xdebug/phpStorm). What I'd like to do is take the javascript out of view configure_chart and move it to a javascript file. Notice I left a few lines to register the callback. I know I can get the javascript code in the view file to run by doing
$this->load->view('configure_chart', $data);

But how can I get the drawChart() in javascript_funcs() to run?

Here is the way the View is now

<html>
<head>
<br><br><br><br><br><br>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.charts.load('current', {packages:["orgchart"]});
google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);

</script>
</head>


<br><br><br>

<body>
<div id="chart_div"></div>
</body>

I moved the drawChart into my javascript_funcs file. How do I invoke drawChart when it is in its own javascript file? And does string passing still work?
