Hi again, It appears that both of the aliases you submitted have errors in the URLs. The first, issue 356 http://code.google.com/p/igoogle-legacy/issues/detail?id=356, has %2520 instead of what should just be a %20. This prevents the source URL from redirecting properly. The second, issue 357 http://code.google.com/p/igoogle-legacy/issues/detail?id=357, has a destination URL that returns a 404. The alias looks to be in effect for this gadget, but it won't display anything because there isn't a gadget at that URL.
I'd like to implement both of these corrections simultaneously, so please let me know what URL I should use for the destination in alias 357.
