I wonder if anyone can help me.

I just bought a 37" Toshiba LCD TV with 2x SCARTs, 3x HDMIs and 1x
component input.

I don't have any HDMI devices at the moment, so in the meantime I want to
connect my DVD player to the TV. If I connect it using a SCART socket,
everything's fine. Likewise my digibox. But I want to connect the DVD
using component (better picture?) Unfortunately, when I do this -- the TV
doesn't seem to pick the signal up. I just get a blue screen.

My jacks are coloured Yellow, Red and White -- while the input sockets on
the back of the TV are Red, Green, Blue. But I've connected them the
exactly same way I used to on my CRT Toshiba (yellow/white/red,
vertically), and that worked fine before.

Firstly the component method probably won't make a noticeable difference.
(As long as RGB is being fed via the SCART)

If the jacks on the player and Yellow, Red and White it sounds like
composite (not component) video and left/right audio... You will want to
avoid composite video at all costs!

What's the DVD player?
