Converting "Full Name" into First / Last Name Fields

I came across this post and I'm having issues with implementation:

http://developers.marketo.com/blog/add-a-full-name-field-to-a-marketo-form/

First, I already had a "Full Name" field used for something else, so I needed to create new field named "Lead Full Name" (leadFullName). 

In step 2, the post mentions "In the Javascript, change the “splitFullName” configuration to contain the 3 field IDs."

I converted everything that says "fullName" to "leadFullName", but other than that I'm not sure what I'm supposed to change...any thoughts, community?!

I think the blog post is referring to changing the parameter values in the last line to match your field names in Marketo:
splitFullName("firstName","lastName","fullName");

For example:
splitFullName("name of your first name field","name of your last name field","name of your full name field");

Thank you for the response! I too thought that is what it meant, but I still can't get it to work.

I replaced all instances of fullName and replaced it with leadFullName since that was the field I manually created.

This is the page I was attempting:

http://get.zenefits.com/request-demo/

This is an embedded version of the form, but I have tried on both embedded and not embedded pages and haven't been able to get it to function as described.

Thanks for the help!
