Swapping Data Sets

[Boof]

How would one load a new set of data while keeping the various filter
settings. For example, consider the US Presidents example:

http://simile-widgets.org/exhibit/examples/presidents/presidents.html

If I wanted to have 4 separate data sets (1700s, 1800s, 1900s, 2000s),
I would like the user to click on a century button and load that set
of data, but keep all current filters.

Or, is there a better way to break up data? I have a couple thousand
items of information I would like to display but I would like to break
it up for performance reasons.

I have a bookmarklet that I use to reload just the data, which you should be able to adapt:

javascript:(function(){exhibit.getDatabase().removeAllStatements();exhibit.getDatabase().loadDataLinks(function(){})})()

You probably want to tweak your data links before running that.

Axel, I really appreciate that and I'm sure it is quite helpful. I'd
like to pursue it but I'm not much of a coder. I'm amazed that I've
been able to do this at all. It's a credit to all the developers.

I have this:

<link rel="exhibit/data" href="set1.js" type="application/json" />

and would love to load set2.js instead. How to do this with your
bookmarklet idea?
