Dynamic height
I have created an XML file that uses Content type="url" and it refers to a
PHP page and in that page I wrote
echo "<script language='JavaScript' src='http://localhost:8080" .
$_GET['libs'] ."' ></script>";
echo "<script language='JavaScript'
type='text/javascript'>alert(_IG_AdjustIFrameHeight)</script>";
Then I got alert, so the required js files are included in the PHP page.
At the end of page,
echo "<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>";
echo "_IG_AdjustIFrameHeight();";
echo "</script>";
In adjustHeight method, I kept an alert. so a call is made to
_IG_AdjustIFrameHeight(). But the iFrame height is not getting adjusted in
IE or mozilla. In Opera, iFrame height is changed properly.
When I use the _IG_AdjustIFrameHeight(); in XML file that contains Content
type="html", it is working in IE also.
Why it is not working in IE and mozilla?
If rpc is not going to support, then to which ifpc function it is going to
make a call?

Correct, which is why shindig attempts to choose a sensible set of files as
much as possible, and puts other things inline. Take a look at
gadgets/http/GadgetRenderer.java for details.

Not necessarily. If JS files are cached, separate downloads *might* be
more efficient.

Loading a single script file with the aggregated contents is much better
performance than loading multiple files as only a single network fetch is
needed.

The libs parameter is automatically calculated by the server to include only
what the gadget in question actually uses. It generally chooses the most
optimal bundling available.

Kevin,
What u said is the best idea for core features.
for plugins/optional features ... it increases the file size... shouldn't
there be different files for different optional features?
Like one for dynamic-height, one for tabs, etc ? and so that the app can
request whatever it actually needs.

That's not necessarily true; the libs parameter will usually just point to a
single file with aggregated script contents.

Neo,
Forget abt type=url for a while. Its not supported yet.
Kevin,
I was just wondering why I was getting so many mails regarding
dynamic-height. U answered it. And now I know that it was all from one
person. I think we should make it a point to mention the fact that "we don't
support type=url gadgets yet" or some sorta statement be displayed on the
Apache Shindig site and also in the TODO/Readme file.
Arun,
Even if type url is supported, the below statement is wrong:
echo "<script language='JavaScript' src='http://localhost:8080" .
$_GET['libs'] ."' ></script>";
You cant import a whole lot of javascript files using one <script> tag. U
need one <script> tag for every file. So maybe might have to split
$_GET['libs'] into separate strings(to get feature names) and then import
the files from the server with <script> tags.
And for now: type=url is not supported as Kevin said. Wait for a while and
you will make hay or else u will mess up if you try to do stuff the wrong
way. Just my 2 cents :)

But he is saying that he is getting the JavaScript required for settitle and
dynamicheight in his (as he used the script tag) page.

Arun,
You've asked this question before (several times, in fact). type=url is not
supported yet. When it is supported, you'll be the first person to know.
Nobody on this list is going to be able to help you make type=url work
because type=url is not supported. We will most likely not be able to
support type=url until the RESTful APIs have been implemented.

But if I use other XML file that has Conetent type="html", then it is
working fine.
Just content type is changing. Nothing else.

This usually happens when the relay file does not exist, or the relay
URL is not passed to gadgets correctly.
It works in Opera because Opera supports document.postMessage which is
taken advantage of by the rpc library to make cross-domain calls.
