  • With HTML5, for better effects you may use [canvas](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Canvas_tutorial/). – Bali Balo Jul 23 '12 at 04:48

Using preexisting tools:

You could build a calendar using a number of calendar plugins that exist, like FullCalendar for jQuery, or any of these other plugins.

Timeline sliders exist, also for jQuery, like Timeline JS, jQuery Timelinr, Timeglider or Tiki-Toki, of which I think the last sounds more aptly suited to your cause.

If you want a super-simple, non-interactive, way of displaying timeline data in a few lines of HTML, you can use the Google Charts API to do it. Here's a self-contained example: https://gist.github.com/KorkyPlunger/16c540f7b622b8906c1351e44bf1bf3c
