I'm having a bit of trouble with this working. I get an error Fatal error: Call to undefined function cbrequestargs() in /public_html/cookbook/inputdraw.php on line 16 when I try to save. any suggestions?

The "CBRequestArgs" dependency is removed in the new version (2009-05-07). Please download the zip file.

I'm having trouble with the save as well and I'm using the version non-commercial.v1.5. The app starts up ok but when I click the save button, the drawing disappears and I see that the uploaded svg file has zero content.
