Caveats:
This script may not properly hilite the Holiday schedule on
non-weekend holidays as holidays are not present in a standardized
fashion on the WSF website. However, due to my living on Bainbridge
Island, I am concerned with that route, and do perform manual holiday
updates when known (i.e. I receive WSF schedule updates for that route
only). Any other route is not likely to have been manually updated
for holidays.

Dome traffic:
Please note that Seattle Mariners
traffic can have a significant traffic impact on ferry schedules. For
this reason, on Mariners home game days, a banner will be displayed
indicating a home game and start time. (This information is
not incorporated in the ferry schedule itself.) Note that this
information is only displayed on those routes with a terminal near
Seattle. These routes were chosen arbitrarily by the author and
cannot be changed at this time. (Simply select a Seattle route to
check.)
Mariners info
is derived live from
http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/sea/downloads/Mariners2008.csv
The Seattle Seahawks game schedules will be displayed in the same manner (data derived from http://www.seahawks.com/2008Schedule.aspx).
Understanding:
| The hilite feature uses 4 colors by default (you can change this, see below): | |
| lightgray | indicates a departure between 40 and 90 minutes from now |
| darkorange | departure between 35 minutes and 40 minutes from now (this indicates time to pack up my desk at work and start walking) |
| yellow | departure between 15 minutes and 35 minutes from now |
| red | departure less than 15 minutes from now |
