Interactive d3.js tree diagram
license: mit

This is a d3.js tree diagram that incldes an interactive element as used as an example in the book D3 Tips and Tricks.

Any parent node can be clicked on to collapse the portion of the tree below it, on itself. Conversly, it can be clicked on again to regrow.

It is derived from the Mike Bostock Collapsible tree example but it is a slightly cut down version.

Hi Sarah, This example is released under the MIT licience. As such you are free to use it under that model. I make no copyright claim and really don't want to restrict anyone from using it as it is a derivative of Mike Bostocks original work and ultimately, it's there to be used and to make the World a better place, not to be hoarded :-). Please use it with my blessing and thanks.
