Hi,
Your code is fine, except your makeRequest is being called before the
gadget js files have been loaded.
Instead of calling makeNormalRequest() directly, register it to be
called when the gadget framework loads. This is the way to do it
gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(makeNormalRequest);
You complete code would look like follows -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Module>
<ModulePrefs title="Fetch Content as Text">
<Require feature="opensocial-0.7"/>
</ModulePrefs>
<Content type="html">
<![CDATA[
<div id="content_div"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function makeNormalRequest() {
var params = {};
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.CONTENT_TYPE] =
gadgets.io.ContentType.TEXT;
var url = "http://www.google.com";;
gadgets.io.makeRequest(url, response, params);
};
function response(obj) {
//obj.text contains the text of the page that was requested
var str = obj.text;
var html = str.substr(0,400);
document.getElementById('content_div').innerHTML = html;
};
gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(makeNormalRequest);
</script>
]]>
</Content>
</Module>
