I just installed a widget (the 5 star widget) and I am having some problems on my FW page.
I think I have narrowed it down to the fact that the widget does not work well on on the same page that I have a counter widget.
But it is not in every browser that the problem occurs.
I see it on Chrome (PC) and ipads…
Here is the working 5 star widget with nothing else influencing it- seems to work great.
THis page has been the same now for over 1 year with all great. THe addition of the 5 star widget has been the only issue and with safari was perfect. CHrome strangeness and ipad.
You can answer this question yourself, very easily. Make sure you have enabled the Develop menu in Safari (Preferences / Advanced). Visit your page. Choose Develop/Error Console from the main menu. Look for anything in RED.
There’s a similar thing, but better-hidden, in Chrome. I don’t have it running at the moment, so I can’t give you the specifics.

oh yeah then I would have quite a few.
DO you think there is a conflict between 2 widgets??

BTW, clicking any link next to the Error or alert if a link exists will take you to that line of code.

little technical question… I deduced that my five star ratings is NOT working on ipads because I stripped everything except 5 star widget and another widget that tells number of visitors.
The rating works fine on my iPad, but the counter isn’t working at all. It’s not even loading its scripts. I can’t explain this, the JavaScript appears in the source code and DOM on my desktop, but not at all on the iPad. I’m looking at it in the debugger, so I can see the actual source code as served to the iPad.
Looking at the counter, since the code in the desktop is using document.write() (which is not how you’re supposed to modify the DOM of a page) it’s possible that this is a deliberate choice, since document.write() probably doesn’t work at all on MobileSafari. It appears as though stat counter is ignoring traffic from the iPad entirely.

Walt.
The widgettest page has both counter and 5 star on.
The graphic on the page links to widgettest2 page which just has 5 star and works on ioad like you said.
So I have figured when the page loads it does not want both running?
I know it is nit nmthat simple.
Should I contact the maker of the counter widget.
Can you take another look at this challenge on my FW test page? THis is on IPADS only.
The first link has both the counter and the 5 star widget and on an ipads you will see that ONLY the counter shows. I put the code for both on the page too.
