That is the "missing" javascript library but it shouldn't give a
traceback like that.

[traceback snipped]

Hmm, "pickling error"?  If you click on the widget it should add it to the
body of the form.

I'm not sure why you are getting these tracebacks as I downloaded
everything from the new_html (XMLWidgets, Methods, XML Document + VZ
stuff) and installed it into a clean Zope distribution and tested that it
worked correctly.  When you view index_html it should display "This is an
example of some widgets..." and when you view the source of the frame it
should have a new division and some (incomplete) javascript code.
Clicking on the watermark should add <watermark/> to the end of the
document (and then WILL traceback until you remove the additional
watermark or give it a name attribute).

Anyone else getting these problems? 

BTW: Anyone checked out the ZEI?  With a little rewrite of the javascript
code we should have an XMLWidget for visually editing the HTML on both
Netscape & IE!
