HI Charles,
I have been using timeline without too many issues, although you need some intuition on how you install it. Are you working on a web server on yuor machine? If not, yuo should give a try and check things on localhost. Also, use Firefox and its add-on Firebug, to check what could be wrong with JS. my 2 cents (of Euro) mario On Wed, 2014-01-22 at 11:15 -0800, Charles Knell wrote: > I've tried to set up an experimental timeline by copying the material > on the Getting Started Wiki page, but the results are not what I > expect. > > > I get a grey rectangle with no timeline inside. > > > I do have an Internet connection, so I don't think the ability to > access the script file is at issue. > > > I downloaded the local Timeline example, but while I can see the text, > none of the content which I think is supposed to be provided by the > javascript appears. > > > Also, the link to the "Timeline examples" is dead.
