Re: [Simile-Widgets] Detecting wether timelines has been loaded
Careful, note that the timeline object gets defined when timeline _begins_ to load; using this heuristic might lead you to invoke timeline before it _finishes_ loading the various supporting scripts.

You can check to see if the Timeline object is undefined, or if the 'version' property on it doesn't equal a specific version. Something like this should do the same thing as the jQuery example you provided: if (window.Timeline === undefined || window.Timeline.version !== '2.3.1') If you'd like to easily see all the other properties available on the Timeline object, just do console.debug(Timeline); in a browser console. Most modern browsers have good developer tools for doing stuff like this, or have plugins available for it. (I use Chrome and its developer tools.)

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Detecting wether timelines has been loaded
if (window.Timeline === undefined) {
console.log(Timeline not loaded)
}
else {
console.log(Timeline.version = + Timeline.version)
}
