Thanks for your reply. I made some tests, you were right about the mime types, they make a difference.
Generic server (free shared hosting): http://romanito.ovh.org/wave/full-size-image/manifest.xml Served as application/xml - Does not work. Google Code Project Hosting: http://romanito.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/wave/gadgets/full-size-image/manifest.xml Served as text/plain - Does not work. GGE: http://hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/115796239262785573913/full-size-image-manifest.xml Served as text/xml - Works. So text/plain does not work. Also it would be a good idea to allow application/xml files to be processed, as some servers seem to handle XML files that way. Thanks, Romain.
