Thank you! David, both of your suggestions worked. Question: where is the best place to look for the appropriate documentation? For example, where would I look to learn about ex:eventLabel? I did not see reference to it in http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Exhibit/2.0/Timeline_View or http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Controlling_A_Timeline_Within_An_Exhibit.
Should I not pay too much attention to pages on the MIT wiki but rather focus on the documentation pages on Google Code, http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/?
