Hello Sam,
The Taiwan Stock Widget 1.2 has been not able to display the stock quotes correctly since this week. I guess TWSE having changes on its web. Are you going to update this widget? I really love it.
Best Regards,
Argen

Hi Sam,
Taiwan Stock Widget 1.2.1 has “undefined” after the second line onwards. I would appreciate it if you can match the TWSE’s changes!. I use it all the time. Thanks!

Hi Sam,
Your question gave me an idea. I deleted the /Library/Preferences/widget-org.dyndns.samtz.taiwanstocks.plist and then downloaded ver 1.2.1 once again.. I then copied the stock numbers in the plist over and everything is back. Thanks!

hi Gilbert,
i thought nobody would like to use Fire-Lyrics. few months ago, i designed Fire-Lyrics 2. but, i did not finish it yet. as long as i have free time, i will develop it. in the short term, the Fire-Lyrics is not available. sorry about that.
best, sam

I tried using your Merriam-Webster Dictionary Widget, which i downloaded off Apple’s site. Installation went fine, but when i used it, the entire thing froze after searching for the first word. Couldn’t delete the word, move the scroll bar, nothing…
I deleted it, reinstalled, and the same thing happened. ???
I have a 2GHz, G5 iMac, OS 10.4.11.

I donated via PayPal for the Webster Widget for my Mac but it still will not find definitions from the widget window…it worked fine when I first got my Mac but it has not been working for the last 4-5 months. Please advise.
