Hi

For the past several months, I have been getting intermittant errors
from my (not local, but from simile-widgets.org) Exhbit API, where it
seems to be using/calling the non-existent Babel Validator
simile.mit.edu.


My exhibit page loads fine sometimes, but at other times, i get a JSON
Validator error from Babel (with the message 'we will explain the
error later'), and sometimes I get the Service Temporarily Unavailable
mesage.


If you go to: http://simile.mit.edu/babel/validator  --
You get Service Unavailable -- which I also get occasionally when
loading my Exhibit page.  More often, though, I just get a spurious-
looking JSON Validation error.  I know my JSON is good because it
validates at simile-widgets.org/babel.

Nowhere in my exhibit HTML/JavaScript do i refer to mit.edu, so this
is coming from somewhere in this externally referenced URLs from my
HTML HEAD section:


<script type="text/javascript" src="http://api.simile-widgets.org/
exhibit/2.2.0/exhibit-api.js"></script>


So, I went digging through firebug/Net panel and trawled all the calls
to external JS, and there in exhibit-bundle.js, which is posted at:

http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/exhibit-bundle.js,

I found some references to mit.edu/babel -- not sure if these are what
are causing my problems, but I suspect they must be.

Can someone who contributes to this code please make the change in the
exhibit-bundle.js file?

Or please let me know what I am doing wrong.

Or please let me know how I can override this validation function in a
local js file, I'd be happy to do that.

I could be all wrong and there may be nothing wrong with this code on
exhibit-bundle.js, but then I cant still explain why the mit.edu
Validator is being called, or from where!


Here is the suspicous bit:


.......
.......

Exhibit.UI.docRoot="http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/";;
Exhibit.UI.validator="http://simile.mit.edu/babel/validator";;

<...some validation call happens after this....>
....
....

thanks in advance for any advise and ideas.

regards
-k
