Hi David,

The issue that was causing the failure of your timeline to load has been 
corrected through a small code update on the Simile server.

The system's ability to deliver your code to render your page should be 
stable now and I do not expect that you'll have further issues.

My apologies, for the amount of time it took to correct this problem. 
Holiday travel and commitments made tracking down this difficult to 
identify problem and correcting it rather challenging. Things were working 
for me in some browsers (and browser versions). But, not in others. I've 
verified that your asu.edu website is now working correctly for me in all 
major web browsers.

I believe all issues with all sites are corrected at this point. But, I 
will be keeping an eye on this Google group to make sure no one else is 
having issues.

I would like to 2nd Dr. Karger's recommendation of using relative protocol 
URLs (such as "//api.simile-widgets.org" rather than 
"http://api.simile-widgets.org/"; or "https://api.simile-widgets.org/";) is 
webpages using Simile javascript. Browser companies (Google, Mozilla, and 
Microsoft) have been pushing hard to have websites use TLS (https). This 
push includes standards work with W3C on http, hsts, and related protocols 
involving security headers and automatic protocol upgrades. The push for 
https content extends to the Google Search Engine down ranking content 
served over http in search results.

For anyone that is not currently using https based webpages due to a lack 
of security certificate, the EFF's "Let's Encrypt" project provides free 
and automatically renewing web server security certificates.
