D3 Examples - Add and remove nodes

Add and remove nodes

Click to add nodes! Nodes near the cursor will be linked to the new node. Clicking an existing node will remove it.

This is an extension of this example, adding the capability of removing nodes by clicking them. This means that dragging is no longer supported.
