Others will no doubt have detailed help, but here is an example (the
drag and drop images on a notebook) that works with IPython 2.0:

https://bitbucket.org/ipre/calico/src/master/notebooks/profile/static/custom/custom.js#cl-52

We copy all of those files into new profiles and works fine.

As for debugging, I use the Chrome developer tools (right-click on
page, inspect element; select Console tab) to see errors in loading.
