Hi, Geoffrey,

I had a look at your files, and I think I've found the problem: It's because of 
something missing from our documentation.

Your script needs to be run only once the document is ready, since it tries to 
access elements on the page. You'll need to wrap your code inside a 
document-ready event handler, like this:

$(document).ready(function () {
    fluid.pageEnhancer(…);
    ...
});

I've modified the tutorial to include this.

Another thing I notice is that you have two calls to fluid.pageEnhancer(), 
again probably a result of a lack of clarity in the documentation. You only 
need one call; the documentation starts by describing the basic call, and then 
explains how to modify it for the fat-panel use. It obviously gave the 
impression that you need both calls. I've tried to clear that up.

You mentioned in your email that you had to guess at what some of the 
instructions refer to. I would love to hear where you found things confusing, 
since we're always trying to improve our documentation. Feedback from users is 
especially helpful. Please feel free to ask questions here on the mailing list, 
or in the IRC channel for a possibly more timely response:

I hope these comments help. Please let us know how it goes, and please ask any 
questions you might have. We'll do what we can to get you up and running.
