Re: Problems adding a Digg This link
I have a similar problem ,I am trying to add twitter js to my GWT site using HTMLPanel widget ,I am trying to add the divs and javascript to the HTMLPanel. It works on Firefox but not on IE or chrome.I think IE and chrome does not take the script tag or it does not call the javascript (may be for security reasons I don't know why ).Please suggest a better way to do this .I have pasted below the html content i am trying to add to HTMLPanel div id=twitter_div h2 class=sidebar-titleTwitter Updates/h2 ul id=twitter_update_list/ul /div script type=text/javascript src=http://twitter.com/javascripts/ blogger.js/script script type=text/javascript src=http://twitter.com/statuses/ user_timeline/xyz.json?callback=twitterCallback2amp;count=5/ script On Nov 30, 5:05 am, mayop100 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for the prompt feedback guys.
