Hi, I'm trying to understand how userprefs get their default value, as it doesn't happen right now in my shindig setup. I know UserPrefs are supposed to be passed in the gadget's iframe url as up_name=value paramaters, and that is what happens for prefs that are set by the gadget, but not on the first load ( I guess that's cookiebasedprefs.js work )
I noticed that iGoogle also passes prefs in a js array together with messages from the message bundle, why is that so? I've looked it up in Partuza's code, and I found out the iframe is generated by php, which is something I'd like to avoid. I'm using js code derived from SampleContainer. I found out that there's a js function that is supposed to retrieve the UserPrefs for the gadget url, but I did not understand how. I'd appreciate any help. Ben Bonfil LabPixies
