Trying to use json data for a data source url in a google gadget

283 views Asked by At

I'm trying to populate a google gadget with data retrieved in json format from a url. I've tried this with a couple of differet gadgets with no success. Here's a link to one of them:

Here's the link that I'm providing for the data source url: http://www.pikefin.com/phpdev/ajaxsample/echodatasource.php

When I click on "Preview Data", eventually I get a message of "Request Timed out" in the preview window.

The json data should be value because I copied it from a google spreadsheet link which worked in the same gadget.

I'm not exactly sure what I changed (it might have been something on google's end) but the preview is working now.
