Well, just in case anyone has this problem in the future, I did
eventually find my answer.

To use the createPopup function as described in my post, you must
reference Prototype and Scriptaculous locally, not through the Google
API as I was doing.

As soon as the libraries were in the same domain, my scripts worked
without error.

Just FYI.
