I'm trying to get a timeline working, using the code from 
http://simile-widgets.org/, and following the instructions/tutorial at 
http://simile-widgets.org/wiki/Timeline_GettingStarted

It works perfectly when I serve it via 
HTTP<http://zamphatta.com/something.htm>, 
but when I use it as local files on my computer, it only shows a blank 
timeline in Chrome. Firefox can't even seem to load the page at all. Why? 
I'm not a Javascript expert, so I'm a bit lost as to why this could be 
problematic. 

My only guess is that when grabbing a local XML file, there's no 
content-type so the script gets confused or something, but that would be 
pretty major bug that I'm thinking would've been found by now. Even if 
that's the issue though, I don't know how to fix that in JS. I thought I 
could try using JSON, but I couldn't find how to 'import' JSON data on the 
Wiki.

(I'm using Google Chrome & Firefox, on Ubuntu. I don't need this to work in 
IE)
