Uncaught TypeError: $today is null

I'm using the library from the latest commit on the master branch. I get the following error when using, or switching to, the day, week, month, or year view:

Uncaught TypeError: $today is null

The offending code is here. It's not clear to me what element this line of code is attempting to find

let $today = document.getElementById(date_utils.format(date).replaceAll(' ', '_'))

Upon further consideration I have realized what is causing this error. This will happen when rendering the Gantt chart for historical or future data, and the current date is not included in the timeline at the top of the chart.

I will try to put together a PR to fix this

[Klaus-Valse]

Wait I think you duplicated my issue that I posted right before (#412). Maybe my documentation helps.

[mark-monteiro]

Ah yeah, looks like we opened duplicate issues. My PR #414 will fix both issues

Thanks for calling this out, and apologies for the delay in fixing it!
