Any ideas? > hmm module unload SHOULD be separate to the gadcon client config. i designed them to be separate so u can "unload" and "load" a module and magically the gadget appears where it was configured for before. of course each module is in charge of remembering its OWN list of "instances" and names/id's for them and corresponding config for that instance. the gadcon entry is separate and when the gadcon inits it asks for a provider of that name/class - and if it finds one (the module provides it) it asks it to init the gadget... the point was that we could ship default config FULLY populated with every gadget and then only the modules u want provide the gadgets and non-provided modules are just left out with the user non-the-wiser. something has gone wrong here. what you think should work... should. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.
