Dave, I appreciate your input. I've tried many permutations of code to try to get this to work. The <![CDATA[ block didn;t work. I even just put all the code into default.html as-is - no widget at all, no special parsing involved, and still no luck.
I did get rid of the Firefox error by removing the unparsed stuff. However, the code still doesn't work because I think it can't find the elementsPath "elements/". In fact, now it doesn't even work in IE. This path contains all the images used by the container. I've placed them in src\main\webapp\elements. Do I also need to manage this somehow in Boot with ResourceServer.allow and/or put the images someplace else? The strange thing is that when I was getting the Firefox error, the container images worked fine in IE. So it seemed the elementsPath was OK. This leads me to believe there is some parsing going on in Lift that I just don't grasp. But, then again, it's probably something simple.
