Thanks for the reply Larry,
So from your example it looks like I can get a handle on the xml prior
to actually loading the xml into the timeline?
If this is true then how?

I tried:
          tl = Timeline.create(document.getElementById("tl"),
bandInfos, Timeline.HORIZONTAL);
          tl.loadXML("jfk.xml", function(xml, url) {
                       alert(eventSource.getEarliestDate());
                       eventSource.loadXML(xml, url);
                       });

But It still returns null.

Thanks for your help so far!
