I've not checked your syntax as I am not familiar enough with these 
contracts to see it without cross-checking with the documentation, which 
I assume you have done. Others will be better at spotting syntax errors.

Assuming syntax is correct. Have you verified that requesting 
"http://localhost:8888/rightbar.html" actually returns some code?

The other thing is that I wrote this contract for V1. There have been 
many changes since then, including the use of JX. I'm not sure if this 
is still the "right" way to include content.

See above - we need a views savvy dev to advise here.

:-) and you're teaching those of us still trying to get to grips with 
views (when I taught at Universities I always used to learn loads by 
doing the labs when students would ask me why their code behaved this 
way or that way).

Raise an issue (if there isn't one already, this is ringing a bell 
somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind).
