Text Box

  • A text box can include formatted text, links and images.  See example at right.

HTML Box

  • This object processes the contents as HTML. It can contain HTML, CSS and JavaScript however any code is limited to function within the scope of the HTML box. The HTML box will only appear as a 'box' if the HTML is coded to draw one. See "HTML Box Example" a very simple example. (TBD improve)

More Gadgets

Access an extended library of Google and 3rd-party provided gadgets for use in sites.

Insert -> Gadgets -> More gadgets

Insert a wide variety of items such as:
  • Frame (to embed a page from elsewhere on the web, perhaps your Blog).
  • Clocks
  • Games
  • MP3 player
  • News feeds
  • PayPal
  • Twitter
  • Weather

TBD - fix HTML box position (perhaps I can put the two right justified objects into an invisible table so that they are vertically stacked rather than ending up next to each other)
