When you run Firebug on iGoogle, you are running it on the container page, not in the IFRAME that contains your gadget, so it does not have the same global object as your gadget IFRAME.
One way to run Firebug on your gadget code is to right click inside your gadget and select This Frame and then any of: Show Only This Frame Open Frame in New Window Open Frame in New Tab Then you'll have your gadget code running in its own browser window or tab, and when you use Firebug you will see gadgets.io and the other objects you expect. -Mike On Wed, May 5, 2010 at 3:57 PM, celoserpa <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello list, > > I haven't dug up deeply into the Gadgets engine nor I plan to right now, > and something intrigued me.
