Hi GregZ. 1. Yep, version 0.7 of the OpenSocial specification renamed opensocial.makeRequest() to gadgets.io.makeRequest().
2. This depends on the container in question. The good news is that all containers that leverage the open-source Shindig gadget server, including Orkut, should be able to call methods in the 'gadgets' namespace without any modification. And regardless of whether they utilize Shindig, it is likely that all containers will implement some if not all of the gadgets namespace (including makeRequest()) in the future since this is mandated by the actual specification: http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/spec.html#corejavascriptapi All the same, you must be conscious of the fact that not all OpenSocial containers will be updated immediately and develop your apps accordingly. - Jason On Feb 6, 11:57 am, ziebold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Victor, > > Some questions to clarify. > > 1. this was a change 0.6 -> 0.7? > 2. an application developer can assume gadgets.* is available in an > opensocial container because the spec states that the gadgets API must > be implemented? > > TIA, > GregZ > > On Feb 6, 4:57 am, victorc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Are you testing your application on Orkut ? > > If yes, be aware than Orkut now use OpenSocial v0.7, and in this > > versionmakeRequestis no more an opensocial function but now a google > > gadget method, from 0.7 specifications : "Gadgets can use the > > gadgets.io.makeRequestmethod to pull HTML, JSON, and ATOM data from > > remote servers." > > > Victor > > > On Feb 6, 1:58 am, Dustin Jorge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Yeah, it looks like the proxy url (http://0.gmodules.com/46/o/ig/proxy > > > ) is returning the same 404 error we were getting earlier today from > > > everything else.
