Linkky asked a question in Widgetbox on October 19, 2009 18:38:
It swirls and swirls...My flash resize widget has become patchy in FF3 - I use the flash resize widget on a number of sites, but on http://tags.linkky.com it has become flaky. Sometimes, the swirly logo appears, and nothing else. Other times, the widget appears, but calls to the Widgetbox js to later resize the frame no longer works ( in my case WIDGETBOX.publisher.Main.setWidgetSize(new_width,new_height);)
It's probably something stupid I have done that causes a js snafu, but Firebug shows nothing, and I can get it working in Epiphany for example. Not yuor job to debug my code, but if anything looks obvious...

crossdomain.xml issue?Is there an issue with the widgetbox crossdomain.xml file?
All dynamic resizing widgets seems to throw "Permission denied for <http://xxx.com> to call method Location.toString on <http://yyy.com>." errors.
http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/googl... throws:
Permission denied for <http://markup.widgetserver.com> to call method Location.toString on <http://www.widgetbox.com>.
Permission denied for <http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net> to call method Location.toString on <http://www.widgetbox.com>.
I tried a completely vanilla dynamic widget, and the same was true:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
Test
</body>
</html>
Having looked at the widgetbox.com/crossdomain.xml file, I wonder if there is a line missing?
It all seems to be due to a security update in Flash 9, that requires the specific inclusion of a line dealing with headers such as
<allow-http-request-headers-from />
http://willperone.net/Code/as3error.php seems to be the place most people start from on this.
It's an irritating error, and certainly on FF3, seems to mess with the resize

Linkky asked a question in Widgetbox on September 25, 2009 19:11:
Ajax and Dynamic resizingI am calling new content into my widget using Ajax. Once the new content has arrived, I want to be able to call a script to re-perform the dynamic resize, once the divs have filled out with content.
WIDGETBOX.publisher.Main.setWidgetLoaded() called by itself doesn't seem to do anything.
Any thoughts?

We got round this by having a static image version of our widget that displays on WP.com, which links to a dynamic version (see below). Ideally, we'd like to see WP.com support widgetbox widgets, but in the meantime, you can see an example of how to get around it using the techniques at http://linkky.com/build_your_widget.html - There's an example of someone using it at http://mymission2.wordpress.com
The wbox version is at http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/linkky, which is altogether nicer!
