1. Set "walkbacks in browser: no" so that I can enter the debugger when 
it fails.
2. Try it and watch it fail with a DNU.
3. Enter the debugger to verify it was looking for an id of 'body' from 
the elements in the collection.
4. Look at all the elements in the collection it was searching, and 
notice the body one had an id of '~body'.
