No the README seems alright.,it mentions 2 alternatives:
One is that you create a <VirtualHost> ... </VirtualHost>
configuration, set it's document root too /path/to/shindig/php, and
point your browser at http://virtualHostName/gadgets/ifr?url=http://www.labpixies.com/campaigns/todo/todo.xml
The second alternative, is if you don't want to create a virtual host,
so say your document root is /var/www/html, you checked out shindig
to /var/www/html/shindig, then you need to set your 'web_prefix' in
your configuration to /shindig/php, and goto http://localhost/shindig/php/gadgets/ifr?url=http://www.labpixies.com/campaigns/todo/todo.xml
So either those cases are perfectly valid ..
Maybe it's the mod_rewrite that's throwing you off? (ie if your trying
to ask: "/gadgets/ifr" doesn't exist), that's because any URL is
redirected to /index.php, if you take a look at that file: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/php/index.php
You'll see that it see's what URL it has received, and instances the
class that deals with that action (see the $servletMap mapping for the
URL <> Class mapping).
Hope that clears things up for you :)

Please excuse a newbee to both shindig and php if I have overlooked
the
obvious, but in the php/README it suggests that there should be a
gadgets
subdirectory under shindig/php:
e.g.
http://your.host/shindig/php/gadgets/ifr?url=http://www.labpixies.com/campaigns/todo/todo.xml
However in the code checked out as in the instructions (i.e. from
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/) there is
no such
directory.
Could you let me know how to fix this or point me to an example to
study
which will work please?
Thanks for your time,
Tim
