Did you take my advice about Firebug? Are there any JavaScript errors?

    I got it working. Using templates was a big help. I think the main problem was with getting all the jquery and jquery-ui files in the right places and getting all the references to them correct.

    These toolkits are really nice - being able to do all the fancy UI stuff from perl scripts is great! Check out the demos: http://jqueryui.com/demos/

      Glad you got that working. A combination of using Firebug as I previously mentioned along with checking your webserver logs helps a lot when debugging web based interfaces. Thanks, I'm aware of jQuery UI, and use it on an almost daily basis at work.
