use firebug, and check the response from the server.
(make sure error reporting is on)
if the return from the ajax query is an error... then its server side.
I suspect its a php related time error, you should check those
scripts.
NOW if its a local javascript error, (not a bad return from the
server) it may be that you have not initalized the control correctly
does this help?
