Hi Jason What I found in the end was that a url such as ours was not handled properly by Orkut. Our original url was:
http://prod.gwidgets.com/gadgetserver.php?gid=81&site=orkut.com&pid=os&bpc=1 Orkut rendered it's iframe as: http://42ls3815uh72t4hun5udfcs327esfmeo.sandbox.orkut.gmodules.com/gadgets/ifr?url=http://prod.gwidgets.com/gadgetserver.php?gid=81&site=orkut.com&pid=os&bpc=1&parent=http://sandbox.orkut.com&lang=en-US&country=US&synd=orkut-sandbox&view=canvas&mid=3&libs=dynamic-height%3Aviews&h=600&st=AFinprThbNsKP1SXVl73pYB1erxY3uLpDh-XL4ndEqHDimbQ1X1kT6PP8840gMxLGu3yYjOuOs9NvnaMePW5upgbMAhJ4Ei68MhtoJkf82A7ovkzwmHpgLE#gadgetId=857432495391&gadgetOwner=16880368914307770790&gadgetViewer=16880368914307770790&view-params= We have changed it to (and this works fine with no further caching issues: http://prod.gwidgets.com/apps/os/orkut/en/81.php?bpc=1 For some reason it appeared that Orkut choked on our url that had several query string parameters specified. We went to more of a directory based structure and now parse the information (os, orkut, etc.) from the path instead of the query string. Have we missed something obvious here? In your iframe url, you embed our url, which as an additional "?" etc. Was I confusing your url parsing? Regards Ken On Jun 2, 5:13 pm, Jason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Ken.
