ColdFusion 8 Tabs Not Rendering correctly

For some reason none of the ajax features of coldfusion 8 have been rendering correctly on my laptop as of late.

The simple code:


<cflayout type="tab">

<cflayoutarea title="Tab 1">

This is the first tab.

</cflayoutarea>

<cflayoutarea title="Tab 2">

This is the second tab.

</cflayoutarea>

</cflayout>

Should render like Ray Camden's page here:

http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/demos/layout/layout1.cfm

However, it is rendering like this screenshot, which tells me that something is wrong.  This happens on any and all browsers.  When I check the course code, I do see the references correctly to the JS and CSS files, and clicking on them views the source in my browser, but it just isnt rendering correctly.  I used to have CF 8 and 9 installed on this machine and thats what broke it.  I uninstalled BOTH and reinstalled JUST CF 8 and still no luck.

Im desperate - help?

    I suspect your web pages cannot find the correct path to the CFIDE directory. You appear to be using IIS or Apache.

    If so, you should configure the web server by running the Web Server Configuration Tool. That involves copying files from Coldfusion's wwwroot directory to the appropriate web server root directory. You may also have to modify the CFIDE mapping in the Administrator.
