Heat Map Widget - Time functionality

[StevenMenefee1]

I've succesfully imported and set up the Heat Map for the ArcGIS Viewer for flex here:

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=43daf0ffb1d34e31ad752da1340aeb40

However, I am unable to get the time functionality to show up.  Any ideas on why it wouldn't show up at all?  I'm not sure where I change the code to point it to the date field as well.

Here is my code:

Steven,

Have you made the layer time aware in ArcMap before you publish it through server:
