Re: Error when adding my own gadget

Luca,
as per my observations Blogger caches gadgets, and if there was an error 
with it in the past (including that it couldn't access it before for some 
reason, etc), it will show the same error message for a while.

One workaround would be to change the name of gadget file every time you 
modify it (I do that by changing version number in file name). Hence every 
time when adding the gadget by URL, point to the new file.

Hope that helps.
