Hi Amit, Currently, the _IG_Fetch functions will not allow you to fetch content that is on a protected intranet. In order to fetch files with these calls, they must be accessible to the iGoogle proxy, which is to say, they must appear, unprotected, on the internet.
Your second approach will fail when you fetch content from a different domain than that which renders the page. Gadgets on iGoogle are rendered on gmodules.com, whereas your HTML page was probably rendered on the same domain as the file you were fetching. This issue is the reason that the _IG_Fetch calls were created. A possible workaround is to use a type="url" gadget which points to an HTML page on your intranet and use xmlhttp requests to fetch your content.
