Hello,
everyone who is using the custom start page of google knows them: the modules, you can add your gmail box there, games or just a rss feed. There are already a lot of modules, but do you ever build one by yourself?
It's not so hard if you know to play with some javascript.
Today I build one with the use of some simple XML parsing, the script works well in HTML but it doesn't work as a module. Next I learned to use some google-javascript function: first it works fine but then it was over: some cache problem or whatever. At last I used the most simple way: just linking a file on my own server inside some kind of Iframe.
That was the most stable result!
Maybe you tried already to build a module or you start after reading this... just share your experience here.
