title: jqplot tickOptions formatString options
body: <p>I'm incredibly new to web dev. What I'm finding frustrating are the options used in the <code>axesRendererDefaults</code> options in <code>jqplot</code>. </p>
  
  <p>According to this <a href="http://www.jqplot.com/docs/files/jqplot-axisTickRenderer-js.html#%24.jqplot.AxisTickRenderer.formatString" rel="noreferrer">link</a>:</p>
  
  <p>the way to specify how a tick will appear on the axis (either X or Y) will be determined by what is specified by the <code>formatString: ''</code> option.</p>
  
  <p>What options are available for <code>formatString</code> option? In the tutorial given on the <code>jqplot</code> page, they pass options such as: <code>%d</code>, <code>$%d</code> and <code>%n</code>. How do I find the full list of options available? </p>
  
  <p>Are these formatting options separate from <code>jqplot</code> and actually a property of <code>jQuery</code>?</p>
