Ok, now that I've gotten around to give this a serious try, I'm having trouble displaying anything. It seems arc has a problem using .js files because I tried doing something very basic with jquery and it didn't work. Even generating the following html as an arc op doesn't work, even though saving it as a plain html page works perfectly fine. Can anyone enlighten me please?

  <html>
  <head>
  <script type="text/JavaScript" src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/JavaScript">
  $(document).ready(function(){
   $("#generate").click(function(){
  alert('hello');
  });
  });
  </script>
  </head>
  <body>
  <div id="wrapper">
  <div id="quote">
  </p></div>
  <input type="submit" id="generate" value="Generate!">
  </div>
  </body>
  </html>

srv.arc isn't configured to serve static Javascript. You'll need to patch it:

  $ diff -u old-srv.arc new-srv.arc

Then it should work.

Ah thanks! I did try the second change but missed the first one. Finally, I can use js properly with arc. Joy to the world.
