[mythtv-users] IMDB lookup fails in MythWeb 0.21

I am running MythTV 0.21 in Ubuntu. I love all of the improvements in 
MythWeb. When I am in the videos section of MythWeb I can see all of my 
videos. There are buttons on each video for 'edit' and 'IMDB'. The edit 
button seems to work fine. When I click on the IMDB button a little 
green box pops up very briefly saying '1 request pending'. But nothing 
happens other than that. There are no errors in my apache logs. I have 
tried it in IE7 and firefox. I have also tried it in Vista, XP, and 
Ubuntu, and each got the same result. The IMDB button calls a javascript 
function 'imdb_lookup'. I can do IMDB lookups from the MythTV frontend 
and from the command line using the imdb.pl script. However, being able 
to do it from MythWeb would be the most convenient way in my setup. Any 
ideas what my problem might be?
