Thanks for the replies and shared thoughts. You can see what I had to do in the sample container for this: > > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/javascript/samplecontainer/samplecontainer.html
I didn't realize the sample container used a security token, I think that is indeed a good place to start.

I indeed copied the opensocial-reference to opensocial-0.7, and added a new hyvescontainer feature. This works, but I need to specify in my gadget-xml a <Require feature="hyvescontainer" /> line. this isn't a problem for now, but I was wondering how this would work in the "final" version. The only thing I could think of (especially in the case of a shared server that would server several different non-predefined containers, would be to add an url parameter to the iframe src, with an url to a feature.xml to use. I was just wondering whether this was right.

Our site is in PHP, so I guess I need to convert the GadgetSigner to PHP (probably make some people on the PHP branch happy by conrtributing it back :) ). Am I correct in seeing that there is no actual signing (so no actual security) in there at the moment?

Obviously a separate domain is needed to protect the parent container page from the gadget, does this also protect gadgets from each other (in case multiple gadgets are put on one page)?
