Hi Tim, There are 2 different ideas here: 1) Load the events in chunks as needed. 2) Load the event descriptions as needed.
For my timelines (about 300 events over a limited time), I did num 2-- Psuedo code: * replace the bubble contents function with your own which: looks in a cache (a local js object) to see if you already have the bubble contents. If yes, then use. If a cache miss: use ajax to fetch the bubble contents from the server. Then both save in cache and display for user.
