giving a local json file for line chart

I want to create a line chart with some data from a json file, I'm working with Highcharts for that.

In the url for the json file I find something like that : https://www.highcharts.com/samples/data/jsonp.php?filename=usdeur.json&callback=?

I downloaded the json file and then I put it locally, when I give in the url the local json I dont see the chart.

How can I solve that ?

this is the full example in jsfiddle :

You need to have a webserver, because browsers block run files from local file system, due to security reasons.

The data is in the format of .php you need to parse that into actual JSON by using json_encode or use $.ajax instead of $.getJSON along-with CORS and Using Apache as an internal server.
