Will,
If you aren't already using Firefox, try doing so as it has a wonderful
JavaScript debugger, that should at least give you an idea of what might
be going on.
Just make sure that your browser source is displaying the included lines
of Javascript, if it is then there must be an error occuring and the
debugger will help.
