Well as it turns out (and just in case someone else has this problem) The css was the culprit here. Removing the link to the css file I was using allowed the time line to render properly in IE6/7. Apparently, the "align: center" in the body section of my css caused IE to improperly render the bands.
Now the only real difference between IE6/7 and FF is the speed. IE is very slow to render the time line events, and one has to click on the time line itself to actually have items appear after loading new events in via ajax. Almost like the div containing the time line needs to get focus!? Anyway, this is a great widget! Very powerful for quick searches through disparate data sets! wjw On Aug 27, 11:12 am, contemplative <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a number of timelines which display fine in FF and Chrome, but > will not display properly in IE 6 or 7 (I don't have 8, so can't > test). > > I will describe this as best I can, as I can't give access to the > site: > > The timeline does show up, but the bands begin in the middle of the > div horizontally.
