Definitely, I've started looking at the program, and all one has to do is call their loadXML or loadJSON call in the js that reders the page. The format of the JSON/XML is very simple, start, end, title, etc. The rendered timeline can be broken into as many bands as one wants (years, months, weeks, days, even hours, depending on what type/volume of data you are rendering.
The bulk of the work is just in writing a servlet that can be used to generate the XML/JSON data for the js, which isn't that much work at all, since the DV plugin takes care of the session handling for you already; just a little bit of parsing really.

Axton, I know that a DVF (Data Visualization Field) implementation would limit it to a v7 solution, but I think that is ultimately the way to go. Let me know if I could help with such an effort. :) It would be a great, generic, thing for the community. From what was talked about at BUG this year... this really should be a "snap". ( "It should take half a day to implement something cool." is a quote from the Engineer who presented one of the BEST sessions of the year. IMHO.) -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two. Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence. On 8/29/06, Axton Grams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I found this little utility that lays out time line information.
