Hi Larry Thanks for these links. (The link to Babel seemd not to work, but no matter.)
I think my problem is much more basic (my HTML is virtually non-existent) Basically, what I want to do is this: 1. Prepare a spreadsheet or database with the time+geo-related data I am interested in 2. Press a button to get nice-looking timeline with various options. Perhaps I am hoping for too much without doing the programming myself? (If I were looking for someone to do this job for me, how would I describe the task iun such a way as to get a suitable person?) Regards & thanks for your help.
