I sent the link for Convoy (Good grief. I just Googled it - it was the #1 song at one point. Those 70's - what a weird generation.) to my kids the other week and they were rolling on the floor. But really, CB's were trendy and it was important to have a good handle.

I like the parallel to today's Twitter and the like. Very clever thinking.

Strange bug on my end. I hid the second row and when I unhid that row, everything works fine. Nevermind.

Hey again. FYI, 97 Gadgets mentions a discussion page, which is absent from my view. And I can't find your email in the gadgets source (not sure how I can view that source).

I just tried to add another column to my spreadsheet that contains dates and this breaks the timeline. I get this error:

You may not have included all the proper column headers in your range - please click help in the timeline

Removing the whole new date column fixes the problem.

I can't find your email. Where do I look?

It is now working. I did as you said, but had no luck. What did work was deleting the gadget and inserted it again.

If there any way to insert a line to represent 'today'?

hi again m)
(btw - you can find my email address in the source of that gadget!)
Please try again to load that gadget - it should work now.... but you might need to:
1 - refresh the spreadsheet after clearing cache.
2 - click the "edit" link on the upper left of the gadget to and click "apply" again (without changing any parameters).

Hope that helps - and THANKS for informing me of this issue!!

response to m)
Can you use the "Get gadget XML" feature in the upper right corner of the gadget and send that to me so I can see which version you're using?
I think I fixed the issue, but the gadget may be cached in the gadget subsystem and might not propogate to your spreadsheet for a bit (trying to find out whether that should be minutes, hours or more).
Thanks for pinging me

Hey JR, unrelated to this post because I can't find how to contact you any other way...

I'm using the timeline gadget on a google spreadsheet and I'm getting a problem. All worked Fine Monday. Tuesday morning, I logged in and the error came.

org.apache.shindig.common.xml.XmlException: White space is required between the processing instruction target and data. At: (1,13)

I imagine it is something like <?xmlversion... without the space, but I can't be sure. Can you help?

Wow, did this bring back memories! that trip to Florida, the CB made it so much fun, and time flew! Imagine time flying on a car ride from NY to Florida, with kids.... I have to say, admitting to the fact that I can relate - I think you are onto something... yet again!
