Dan,

In the tutorial, this is correct, since the tutorial places the  
html.skin file in the Global directory. If you place the html.skin  
file in Root, you would need to change renderSkin("html") to  
this.renderSkin("html"). So, by your description, what you say is  
working shouldn't be working and what isn't working should be working.

If you like, you can email me a zip archive of the app the way you  
currently have it and I'll take a look at what's going on.
