  • Google Gadget Generator
    To build a Google gadget it is best to start with a completed web application. Your application may be Javascript, php, perl, cgi, or some combination of these with HTML. It can be practically anything as long it is accessible via a URL which you will enter in the gadget_url field.

    This 'Google Gadget Generator' builds an XML wrapper around the URL of your existing web application. Any user preferences are passed as URL parameters.

    Once you enter the Gadget Preferences and any User Preferences press "Submit" and you will be presented with the source code appropriate for a Google gadget.

    There is help text available for each field that appears in this space as you fill out the form.
