jquery tabs and html applications (.hta)

jquery tabs and html applications (.hta)

Hi All,
 
I'm new to jquery and jquery ui.  I've been trying the tabs example ( http://jqueryui.com/tabs/).  This works fine in IE but if I try to put the same code in an html application (.hta file), the tabs layout and styles are all wrong ... any suggestions on whether jquery UI works in html application files ?
