nbdiff not displaying anything in browser
I installed nbdiff via pip and everything looks like it should be working. When I run nbdiff a new tab opens on Chrome at http://127.0.0.1:5000/0 but the page remains completely blank (although the favicon turns to the Jupyter logo).
Here are two notebooks whose truncated diff is:
$ diff temp.ipynb 07-github-integration.ipynb

30c30

So I try to use nbdiff and I get:
$ nbdiff temp.ipynb 07-github-integration.ipynb

I think that maybe running with --debug would help:

Opens 2 tabs in my Chrome browser (still doesn't work).
Also tried in Firefox, but nothing. Am I doing something wrong? My setup is a Macbook Pro,

IPython 3.1.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.
Unfortunately, nbdiff only supports IPython versions before 3.0 at the moment. I'd really like to add support for newer IPythons, but I haven't had the time. I'd happily help anyone who was interested in upgrading nbdiff to support IPython 3.0, but for the near future I won't be able to personally make the upgrade. Sorry about the confusion and the bad experience :(
Ok, not a problem. It looks like a really neat tool. If I may make one suggestion in lieu of supporting IPython >= 3.0 -- add some words to that effect to the Readme.
@tarmstrong, I am not understanding which versions of iPython are supported by nbdiff currently. I tried the latest of 2.x and was unable to get it to work. What version of 2.x are you using?
Hi tarmstrong@, how difficult do you think would it be to add support to IPython 3.x?
FWIW -- I have ipython 2.3.0 (from debian), installed nbdiff (1.0.3) from pypi using pip into a virtualenv (with --system-site-packages). Running nbdiff on two notebooks brings up the browser which displays nothing. In console
