The URL is the very first line, i.e. in your case

http://solution01.vm.webvault.com.au:8080/alfresco/service/aggadget/folder/‍

thanks MikeH,

I tried that but I got the following error from Google:

Error parsing module spec:
Not a properly formatted file 
missing xml header‍‍‍

However, I'm able to access the url directly and it shows the document lists - as in this case i tested Alfresco GG browser

Ah ok - have a look at Step 4 here: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Google_Gadgets

The xml files in question are called:
- Alfresco_Browser.xml
- Alfresco_Search.xml
- Alfresco_Tasklist.xml

Thanks,
Mike

thanks Mike,

Sorry, but I cant find those files.

I tried editing folder.get.desc.xml by adding my server address to the url:

- <webscript>
  <shortname>Alfresco GG Browser</shortname> 
  <description>iGoogle Gadget for browsing the listing of folder contents</description> 
  <url>http://solution01.vm.webvault.com.au:8080/alfresco/aggadget/folder/{path}</url> 
  <format default="html">argument</format> 
  <authentication>user</authentication> 
  <transaction>required</transaction> 
  </webscript>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

But still doesnt work, same error

Restore the .desc.xml file to how it was, otherwise the webscript won't register correctly.

Where did you get the Google Gadgets from? The xml files should be part of that package.
