Thanks Joe, I am glad that it worked for you.
I am just starting to explore jqt and I'm finding it a platform that can overcome some of the challenges that the Enhanced Display has in jhs with displaying tooltips in some browsers. So I guess it is a balance between the convenience of running J in a browser versus running it in a platform that is more consistent. I am guessing that those who are new to J will tend to access through jhs, whereas more experienced followers will see the advantage of jqt overcoming the incremental cost of setting up the platform.
