I am trying to adapt a simple scatterplot program in D3 to accept a CSV file. When I use the data in the file it works just fine, but when I try to load the CSV file it simply won't work. Is there something simple I am missing? The contents of the CSV file "datatest.csv" are the same as the dataset in the code. I have checked that the browser is loading the data, and it seems to all be there. I figure I'm simply missing a step.

.range([padding, w - padding * 2]);
var yScale = d3.scale.linear()

This is the content of the CSV file:
x-coordinate, y-coordinate
5,20
480,90
250,50
100,33
330,95
410,12
475,44
25,67
85,21
220,88
600,150
