Work Description: When retrieving an instance from the UI the request is
handled by:
WidgetInstancesController.doGetWidget(request, response);
With the form data found in instantiate.jsp
This method appears to either retrieve or instantiate a widget instance. The
returned XML doc is created by
WidgetInstanceController.formatReturnDoc(...)
>From this method we can see how to create the necesary HTML to preview a
>widget.
The code, as it currently stands, appears to require a HTTPRequest for a widget
instance to be retrieved. I can't see any quick and easy way of getting the
necessary values to retrieve an instance without submitting such a request.
We probably need to have a specific URL for retrieving a demo instance of a
widget. This instance will be created when the widget is first uploaded to the
server so we are assured that it is always available.

> Perhaps the best approach would be to have a link from the widget gallery to
> a demo instance of the widget.
