Use with Python 2.4.3

I was able to get this to work with 2.4.3 and the method I used could actually be applied to this macro so it too can be backward-compatible.

TicketCharts?.py can use the recipe at http://code.activestate.com/recipes/523034/ to supply a defaultdict for versions <2.5. Note the small fix in the comment at the bottom (items to iteritems).

Then, in the python-ofc-library-2 included with Open Flash Charts 2, modify set_style in openFlashChart_elements.py to not use a conditional expression (Standard if-else block will do).

Hello anonymous,

As you mentioned, in order to resolve the compatibility problems for python versions prior to 2.5, one must revise both TicketCharts? and Python-OFC.

Since I can't change Python-OFC, I don't see any reason to change my TicketChartsMacro Plugin.

However, I will create a link to this solution at the macro's page, for people who still live in the middle ages and use Python versions prior to 2.5.

Thanks!
