cfTimeline Updated

I finally got around to uploading a new version (1.1) of cfTimeline to RIAForge. There are a few nice changes I added in this release. Here's the highlights:

• Added a creationComplete attribute to the cfTimeline tag.

• cfTimeline.getLatestDate()
• cfTimeline.getEarliestDate()

Will respectively retrieve the latest/earliest date in your event source. Why would you want these dates? So you could pass them to:

• cfTimeline.scrollToCenter()
• cfTimeline.setCenterVisibleDate()

Which will either jump or scroll directly to a given date.

Also - the cfTimeline.loadXML() and loadJSON() functions now accept a callback handler parameter to enable you to perform some action when your event data is done loading (scrolling, etc). See docs for further details.

Just an FYI - I know I'm starting to get a lot of JavaScript functions tied to the tag - but I'm ok with that. I've tried to stay true to some of the format being used with CF 8 - which IMO is a very clean and easy to use API while doing all of the heavy lifting with the tags.
