Description rhl 2010-12-14 15:25:14 UTC 
Here is a large number of examples:

http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/tag/animations/

I'm not sure how TikZ handles animations, it might be javascript, it might not be.
If it turns out to be javascript then this is a duplicate of this old bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=338721

Otherwise it is a feature in it's own right. 

If people with more knowledge of the inner workings of TikZ animations, as well as some knowledge of evince wanted to give me a roadmap, I would love to help implement this feature.

I checked one of the animations: http://media.texample.net/tikz/examples/PDF/animated-definite-integral.pdf

I can confirm that the buttons don't respond in evince (GNOME Document Viewer 2.30.3 from Ubuntu 10.04) like they do in acroread version 9.4.1.

It does seem to have a number of javascript scripts in it associated with buttons.  So I'd support making this a dup of 338721 and perhaps making these good test cases for adding javascript.  TikZ is a TeX package for creating graphics via an API.
