Dear all, first many thanks to the authors of this project for providing us such amazing visualization tools!
I tried to install Exhibit and Timeline locally on our webserver. For this, I downloaded the source code according to instructions at http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Exhibit/Download_Exhibit%27s_Source_Code The reasons for a local installation are manyfold: - I want to implement Exhibit and Timeline as analysis tools in our library information system; JSON data is generated dynamically via our WebOPAC server - therefore speed is important, and I don't want that data is sent forth and back over the atlantic (especially search results of our users) - Firefox blocks XMLHTTPRequests from external domains So installed Exhibit and Timeline in the following directories (relative to web root): /js/exhibit/ajax/api/ (and corresponding subdirs) /js/exhibit/webapp/api/ (and corresponding subdirs) /js/timeline/ajax/api/ (and corresponding subdirs) /js/timeline/webapp/api/ (and corresponding subdirs) Accordingly, I adapted the path as follows (and I think this is correct) in exhibit-api.js, line 173: var url = "/js/exhibit/ajax/api/simile-ajax-api.js?bundle=false"; and included exhibit-api.js as follows in my example files <script src="/js/exhibit/webapp/api/exhibit-api.js?views=timeline&bundle=false" type="text/javascript"></script> However, with that, I always get a JavaScript error (elmt has no properties) at line 262 of dom.js If http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api/exhibit-api.js?views=timeline is used, everything works. You may compare http://www.clicaps.ethz.ch/test/nobelists/nobelists.html and http://www.clicaps.ethz.ch/test/nobelists/nobelists_local.html to investigate that. Therefore it looks like the version on the SVN repository and the one used by MIT are different. Any workaround?
