It's bizarre that the standard method of setting the title is not working for you. Did you try restarting Shindig/clearing your browser cache after making your change just to make sure it's not a caching issue?
As for your other question, the chrome around the gadget is controlled by the container--the implementer of the gadget can't do much about it besides set the title, height, etc. if supported. The gadget only controls the iframe in which it lives. If you write your own container you can put whatever you want in the title bar (see iGoogle/Orkut for a different look). Those links that you see in the sample container are created by the example gadgets.IfrGadget.prototype.getTitleBarContent() function in javascript/container/gadgets.js Thanks, Dave -----Original Message----- From: karthi keyan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2009 1:05 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Container title Thanks matthew & dave. Yay ! passing the title to the object of params worked for me. Thank you so much matthew ! I tried nocache=1 along with the property file changes which dave mentioned. But it didn't worked ! I don't know why. BTW, there are two links "settings" and "toggle" just nearby the title. I want to get rid of these. where should I make these changes ? Any ideas ?

I just verified that gadgets.window.setTitle seems to be working fine with the latest code I checked out a day or two ago. Maybe you are experiencing a caching problem of some kind? Have you tried adding nocache=1 into your url and all that? (My layout manager inherits directly from gadgets.LayoutManager similar to the sample code.)
