I posted a message about a month ago about an implementation of "heredoc" for the various SIMILE widgets. The way it works is you can embed the XML into your HTML file (e.g. as an "XML data island") and then the Timeline (or Exhibit etc) code grabs it from the HTML.
That way you don't have to create a separate XML file to be loaded. It also means you can generate the HTML for the Timeline using data from a database (or whatever) - then the user can also "Save as HTML" the generated page and you only have a single file to store somewhere. The code has been working since before the SIMILE code was transferred to Google - so it is reasonable ok. I just haven't got around to posting it to the group yet as I've been a little busy with the paying job. If you want it I'll make an effort this weekend and post it.
