The good: We started making apps. Then we tested Google Gagdet, it worked nicely so we adopted it. We started having lots of users...
The bad: Until a few weeks later the Gadgets wouldn't adjust height automatically... Despite the fact that when we initially created our gadgets we got this to work. Lots of users now complaining! We read the Google Gadget API doc over and over. It works in Chrome and Safari but not in Firefox not IE. Even bought the freshly released ebook on Programming Social Apps by Jonathan LeBlanc (great book btw) The ugly: The issue is adjusting height dynamically. To find what's not working we made a simple code for testing purpose. Here I show the code that is used : https://picasaweb.google.com/117257791425777865999/CodeSnippet#5645207035323380322 (or see the code here: http://gg-testing.googlecode.com/svn/yahootest.xml) The result on a page: http://gadget-api.weebly.com/ (works in Chrome and Safari but fails in Firefox 5 and 6 and IE 8 and 9) Using Gadget Checker (allows to test a Gadget by uploading a file) I get the following error: // WARNINGUnused features The gadget doesn't appear to use the dynamic-height feature, although it requests it. Recommendation: Consider removing this line, so your gadget doesn't contain unnecessary javascript. // Anyone knows why the Javascript is not being used? Why is it working on Chrome and Safari? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "iGoogle Developer Forum" group.
