Hi,

I am having a problem with a Gas Price widget on a Mac platform running OS 10.3

I have the latest Widgets sw from yahoo. The problem is that the text which lists the gas prices from each station is folded over and unreadable. Plus, there is no column (multi column widget) which lists the price. I have seen this on several different gas price widget apps.

Any clue what the deal is? It works the same way on my XP machine too.

thx

which gas price widget?
folded? can you post a screenshot?
"works the same way on my XP" - so it has nothing to do with running on OSX?

Hi, its the Gas Prices widget by David Andrzejak, version 1.4


sorry, am on another PC now and cannot seem to get an image of the screen inserted in this reply.

But yes, I was stating that the problem exists on XP or the Mac - so it seems to be OS independent.

I just tried it. It seems as if the widgets parsing logic is broken (the way it gathers information from a website). You will have to wait for the author to fix it. There is a email address mentioned in the widget, did you try to contact him this way?
