    Do I need to add some code in pressline.tpl.php ?
    because it doesn’t call javascript like your site in the header. so no timeline data show.
    Then I try to copy from your page (http://avenger.name/pressline/)
    but I don’t know what is the appropriate code

    I’m sorry for my english.

    @Thailand friend: 你好
    This plugins base on the time line library called at http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/

    So you must add the script code in your tpl.php file:

    <script src="http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/api/timeline-api.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

    Plz flow the installatoin step 4 and 5, the base js lib is already inside the tpl.php file yet. And usual you do not need add is your self.

    I tried to implement this after I found it at WordPress, but it didn’t work. All I got was an empty rectangular border with the PressLine header.

    Chinese word = 你好
