[EHPweb] jQuery UI

I used the jQuery UI theming tool to role together a theme for the UI  
that I thought fit with our website. I borrowed color schemes etc from  
our existing CSS so I think it's okay. You can check out what I put  
together on EHPDevel at:

	http://ehpd-earthquake.cr.usgs.gov/template/widgets/ui/example.php

This is a widget so to use it, one would just add to their template:

<?php
	$TITLE = 'Page Title';
	$WIDGETS = 'ui';
	include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/template/template.inc.php';
?>

If you think this can be improved to better fit with our site, please  
role together your own theme. You can do this pretty easily and  
quickly at:

Download what you put together, send it to me, and I'll put it up for  
comparison. We can all decide which is the best fit for our site. For  
those unfamiliar with the jQuery UI, it provides very simplified  
interfaces to useful and (sometimes very) complex user interface  
widgets in the web browser. You can learn more about the UI itself at:

Thanks,
