this is actually kind of tricky.

i know what i need to do, but it just won't load the file. it knows the path. i'm telling it to load. it won't do it...

it's because i'm trying to force it do it on pageload. if i was reacting to any kind of user input at all, it would be easy.

so, i could set it up so that the user tells me what file they're using, but i don't actually want to do that. i want the javascript to be able to figure it out.

so, i think it's best if i try to take a nap and come at it fresh in the morning.

the smoke down here this evening has been horrific.
