Hi James, I believe that the Timeline extension to Exhibit "tries to center" on the current date by default. The "ex:start" directive tells the timeline which value (in the data) to use for each of the events painted on the timeline (i.e., it is not related to the "centering behavior"). As I recall, if the filtered dataset includes today's date, it should indeed center on today. My suspicion is that your dataset does not "include" today.
If this isn't enough of a clue to get you started again, maybe you can point us to a URL illustrating the problem.
