a few questions about yahoo widgets for anybody who has it. Does it mod the windows kernal or is it a standalone program that just looks cool?

why do they make it for OS X?

Yahoo! Widgets is a standalone program.

As far as why they make it (I believe you're referring to Yahoo! Widgets) for OS X, I'm not sure. Probably just a feeble attempt to expand their marketshare. Why anyone would use that when they have Dashboard (which is what the widget by the OP is made for) is beyond me.

How does the AJAX work with Dashcode? The GUI editor looks pretty standard, but how is the code implemented?

Konfabulator is available for 10.3, while Dashboard is only for 10.4

As for the editor, it works pretty well, it's similar (very) to Dreamweaver or Frontpage. What's similar is that the GUI is stored in HTML format, and the JS end is held in a seperate file (along with CSS). The app loads the basic HTML that then references back to the JS file for actions. I guess there are three layers to a Widget: CSS, HTML, then JS.

One suggestion is to make the widget wider so the whole title of the thread shows up or make the title font size flexible so it fits the width of the window
