Google changed the code and that JavaScript only creates a new tab, without populating it with gadgets. The workaround is to add the six gadgets manually.Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-7620374902716141422007-04-20T09:30:00.000-07:002007-04-20T09:30:00.000-07:00The suggested javascript text does not appear to w...The suggested javascript text does not appear to work in the latest version of Firefox on my Windows XP PC. <BR/><BR/>To make sure I am not making an error I have copied and pasted the text into the address bar before hitting "Enter".

Also add a feature similar to StumbleUpon to get sites based on areas of interests we have. It is giving results based on certain searches only, I have searched broadly but for some reason it restricts only in one region. Stumble Upon is better at this point.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12219824318025309088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-83425462358112713812007-04-19T04:29:00.000-07:002007-04-19T04:29:00.000-07:00ARGH.. now I have a tab with that JS as the name (...ARGH.. now I have a tab with that JS as the name (and I see no way to delete tabs!), putting it in the addressbar first did nothing for me in latest FF (with NoScript off!)<BR/><BR/>Not your fault I reckon, just sleepy.<BR/><BR/>Thx for all the heads-ups!
