I'm sure everyone else will give you some fancy reason why Gadgets are so different and so cool, but the truth is they're just a webpage.
There is extra JS functionality and some bounding markup to structure preferences etc, but once inside the document, its just like any other webpage. Traditionally though a gadget is a minimal page with one specific purpose, like a form or displaying an image of the day, etc. Any easy cheat is to just have an IFRAME inside your gadget thats points to the page you want to render as a "Gadget". I'd suggest reading the documentation and just remember, if you've already done it as a webpage, it can be done as a gadget, don't let all the hype go to your head. http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/dev_guide.html Good Luck, Matt On Sep 16, 3:20 pm, Pedro Silva <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Please, tell-me what I do to create an gadget.
