Thanks Ricardo. I have put the code up at http://jsbin.com/atiza
As for the double quotes on the Velocity call, those are evaluated on
the server prior to being sent to the client, so no worries there.
I appreciate the help with this! It seems like this should be a very
easy thing to do (I did the exact same thing with Prototype/
Scriptaculous on another site). I am not sure what I am missing.
