What's Up With cfTimeline?

I spent a good bit of time last weekend on my cfTimeline custom tag and was feeling pretty darn good about where it was headed (See related blog entries if you've been living under a rock). Hot zones were working (though the usage is a bit tricky - more on that later), manually defined events were working, I even added an option to load an external file of JSON encoded events. All was cruising along quite well.

Then I decided to through together an actual 'demo' page for my blog here. Thats when things got ugly. Seems my tag doesn't integrate so nicely with Blog CFC. The tag works fine when not wrapped in the layout.cfm tag but when wrapped it don't look so hot. Here is the good version (no wrapper) and here is the not so good version.

My first thought was that the onload events were crashing into each other and wreaking havoc but that suspicion was disproved when I removed the Blog CFC onload and got the same mess. Possible that my blog stylesheet may be colliding with it somehow I suppose.

So anyhow, that's where the tag is at right now for those who are curious. What started out yesterday as a nagging headache has turned into a full blow cold today and my head is a little foggy. So the troubleshooting may have to wait a few days. If anyone has an idea drop a comment.

Heh...yeah I've got the Airborne. Hope it works - I hate colds.

Of course 78 degrees yesterday and snow today doesn't make the sinuses any happier...
