<slap> This is one of those moments I feel like a complete moron. :)
This is what happens when a person tries to conform everything to
their way of doing things. I had added semicolons to the script
because it's easier for me to keep track of stuff (I know Javascript
doesn't require them) and apparently didn't pay enough attention to
where I was adding them. Ack.

Thank you for your insight!
