I've been following the tutorial for the timeline that I found at http://www.simile-widgets.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_Timeline
When I try to use the source specified in the file, I get an error saying, Failure to derive URL prefix for timeline API files. I'm copying and pasting all the code - unless there's an error in the tutorial, there shouldn't be any problems. In the timeline-api.js file, there is a section that says to try using the unbundled timeline and ajax files. When I try using the script provided in the file to do this, I get no errors, but I get no timeline. The page loads and nothing comes up inside the div where the onload function should initialize the timeline. The same thing happens when I host the files from the timeline libraries zip file. I followed the instructions, again, found in the timeline-api.js file, but the same thing happens - page loads with no timeline. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm running this on my windows 8 box in IIS 8.0, if that helps, but I don't see any reason why javascript and AJAX wouldn't work in this scenario. (I also tried downloading the source and running the webapp that was included, but I get exactly the same result - page loads with no timeline. Probably isn't worth mentioning.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
