That's a connectivity issue when the gadget is refreshing data (i.e.
`_table_query_refresh_interval=30000`) . Omit this field and it
*SHOULD* not refresh the contents displayed by the gadget

Multiple answers :

  - Every GViz gadget [1]_ supports _table_query_url and
    _table_query_refresh_interval . That's std
  - GViz gadget built by Google are all documented (see `Help`
    link below each entry in the gallery [1]_ )
  - Google's gadgets are all documented
  - Third-party gadgets and GViz gadgets have to be
    documented by their respective owners. Docs are included
    in the gadget descriptor and most of them are documented
    (... but ...)
  - You can try Gadgets Creator Page [3]_. It displays all parameters
    accepted by gadgets and you can modify properties and
    see how it will look like ;o)

You mean that Google didn't document a feature in their products?
Quite unlikely !
The only thing I found they didn't document was the way to access data
in worksheets inside a Google Spreadsheet [2]_, and they updated the
docs few days after ;o)

.. [1] Google Visualization API Gadget Gallery - Google Visualization API ...
       
(http://code.google.com/apis/visualization/documentation/gadgetgallery.html)

.. [2] [visualization-api] Links to data inside sheet in GoogleSpreadsheets
       
(http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02523.html)

.. [3] Gadget Creator Page
