[gatein-dev] Demo widgets

[Nguyen Anh Kien]

Yes, the gadget container will not know if it is a relative link. it is
always a public link to container can get resource because a gadget
specification file can be put anywhere in the server. Rendering gadget
content is of shindig server and shindig server only process data, not
process context. See *thumbnail* attribute of *ModulePrefs* in gadget
specification <http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/reference.html>said.
 When we get a gadget from any host, we must care these absolute
links. I think a comment should add to guide document for this

regards,
Kien
