They usually only work when I open them in my browser as a file on my system. This has been very frustrating for me. The problem is their sandbox which does not allow you to get XML from a third party web site. You are supposed to use a PHP script as a proxy to work around this problem. However, this does not always work for some reason. Another problem I have is that my web hosting company is adding a script at the bottom of my web pages for the site statistics. This script is preventing my Netvibes widgets from being well-formed HTML so they won&#8217;t work on Google IG or Netvibes.<\/p>\n<p>I do have an example widget for <strong>Stickam<\/strong> that you can view but you will be unable to use it on Google IG or Netvibes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.williamsportwebdeveloper.comcgi\/Stickam.html\">http:\/\/www.williamsportwebdeveloper.com\/Stickam.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I was also thinking about developing some Pageflake widgets but I really need a development web site where I can host my projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Netvibes has developed an Universal Widget API which can be used to create widgets that work on multiple platforms.
