Microsoft live.com Gadget
I wrote a little Microsoft gadget for their live.com beta site. You can install it and get the source from above URL.
live.com still seems rather experimental, I had various problems with Firefox, but for now on IE (after adding live.com and gadgets.start.com as trusted sites, see below), it seems to work reasonably well.
Summary:
A gadget that shows you what's currently showing on all UK ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ channels, and what's showing next.
Currently supported features:
- hover with your mouse over the programme title to see programme synopsis
- auto-refreshes every 10 minutes, or refresh manually using the refresh button
Important: due to some timeout setting/bug(?) with the live.com proxy when using Web.Network.createRequest, I had to use XmlHttpRequest, which means you will get permission errors if you don't add live.com and (after today's iframe change on the live.com site) gadgets.start.com to your list of trusted sites.
