star rating system

New
well i am trying to in corparate this unobtrusive star rater(http://www.masugadesign.com/the-lab/scripts/unobtrusive-ajax-star-rating-bar/) with my vanilla forum, just a bunch on a page manager page.
I have it all working but
not as an extension
nor
does it track vanilla username to limit votes(it tracks ip numbers) I found the part of each script where it says $ip = and switch it to context+>/..whatever it is to get the username and and amble echo the username from in the function but when used to assign to ip it just messed up.
any one done this yet?
or a sugestion/help(i think it may have something todo with a part i saw that said serialize bt i dont know what that does but am doing more research now.)

The i modifyed the degraded version and got it working so it is just the ajax version that needs to be fixed. i guess there could be another file where it is messed up(one of two .js files whitch can be found in the source.
i have working on this problem for weeks now.
Vincent-->well what is your problem right now getting the references correct? if so i never got them to work so i just installed the files into the same directory as vanillia but i really want to make it an extension.
but thats not the problem the prob is that it tryed to render the stars before i set up the database
listing a bunch of WP star rating systems/methods including the one you mentioned...
They list one that looks really good/simple and uses prototype lite (so should work with the default prototype too, not?):

Not sure what your goals are, but this 'hosted service' looks easy too http://star.recompile.net/
Note: FWIW, I tried inserting it here, but this cause a weird error in the preview.
