Karthi -
You should be able to set a fixed size on a containing element (like
the outermost one, for example) in the gadget's HTML and then style
the node with "overflow:auto;".
So, something like
<div style="height: 300px; overflow:auto">
Lots of content
</div>
Or something of the sort

Is there any way that we can enable the scroll bar of the gadgets ?
My content is bit more and it is hidden because of its smaller size.
I am trying to enable the scroll bars. Can anyone please shed some
light on this ? Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Karthi

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

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 ?
Thanks,
Karthi

Hmm. 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.)

Thanks for your reply dave. I exactly tried the below. It didn't
throw me any error. But the title didn't appeared instead title was
displayed as "title". I don't know what is wrong ? should I include
any files ?
I am just using the sample container page as template and I build
other gadgets with that. Please let me know if I am wrong in any
place.
Thanks,
Karthi

Was this one of the things you tried?
<Module>
<ModulePrefs title="Put your title here">
...
To support dynamic title modification, you can then add:
<Require feature="settitle"/>
</ModulePrefs>
and then in JavaScript, do:
gadgets.window.setTitle("Some other title");
assuming that the container supports it.
What else did you try?
