Hi all:I found some great demonstrations of interactive presentation graphics generated

here:http://www.omegahat.org/SVGAnnotation/http://www.omegahat.org/SVGAnnotation/SVGAnnotationPaper/SVGAnnotationPaper.htmlI
 tried to install the package available at that website (it's not on CRAN) and am getting 
some pretty uninformative errors (see below).  My best guess is that the package worked 
under an earlier version of R but is broken now.  Do any of you use this package for 
interactive presentation graphics?  Or, what are some good alternative libraries?  I've 
played around a bit with 'iplots' and RStudio's 'manipulate' library, but those are 
really geared for exploratory analysis.  I'm looking for something geared toward 
presentation, for example, on a web page.  A good "hello,world" I want to 
accomplish would be a time series with 2 or more line graphs that the viewer can choose 
between with radio buttons or checkboxes.Thanks in advance! T

Hi Joseph --

likely you will be able to install with

install.packages("path/to/SVGAnnotation_0.93-1.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")

I've enjoyed using this package for producing heatmaps that can be moused over and display information about underlying row / column values.
