Thanks for the firebug idea. Found out my issue was that php was not
compiled with the json use flag.
The popups when hovering over the upcoming recordings now working.
Confirmed working in FF 2.0.x and 3.5 as well as IE8 in non-compatibility
mode.
The IE6 and IE7 machines are at work and not accessible. However, since IE8
compat mode fails to popup I think they will too.
IE8 in compat mode instead displays the popup data at the bottom of the list
of upcoming recordings. But I believe that has happened for all the older
versions of IE.
