I know I need to include some javascript files to get this running, and
I have been trying to figure out which ones for a bit now.  Is there a
website somewhere that explains what I need to do to get a valid xulG
object?  Currently, I have an a link that uses onclick to execute the
code provided above, but it gives me the following error: 'TypeError:
xulG.url_prefix is not a function'.

I have included all the Javascript files from
/openils/var/web/xul/rel_2_0_6/server/OpenILS/util_overlay.xml.  I just
cut and past the following <script> tags from that file and modified
that last line to point to the correct directory. This is what I am
including in my file:

<script>dump('starting openils_util_overlay in ' + location.href +
'\n');</script>
<script>var djConfig = { 'baseUrl' : '/js/dojo/dojo/',parseOnLoad:
true,isDebug:false };</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/dojo/dojo/dojo.js" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/IDL2js" />
<script>try { dojo.require('fieldmapper.AutoIDL'); } catch(E) {
alert(E); }</script>
<script>try { dojo.require('dojo.date.locale'); } catch(E) { alert(E);
}</script>
<script>try { dojo.require('dojo.date.stamp'); } catch(E) { alert(E);
}</script>
