For us Mac OS 10.4 users, I have made a wonderful widget if I do say so myself. What it does is show you the users that are currently online. You can mark each user as a "Friend" or a "Foe." Doing so will change the color of the dot next to them to green or red. If you have Growl installed, the widget will send notifications when our friends log on or off. This is so for Foes as well, but you need to turn it on in Growl's preferences. Also, double click a user name on the front side to easily change if they are a friend or foe.
Yah yah yah, I know what you're here for. Link!

THANK YOU! You are awesome!

Lemming, you BASTARD!

I'm at work, so I can't install this on my Mac. I have to wait another six hours! You freaking did this on PURPOSE!

J/K Sounds like a great idea. I can't wait to get hom and install that sucker. How easy are the widgets to put together? Seems like every swinging richard is making a widget for something. I have no programming experience, but there are a couple I'd like to put together.

For some reason Growl isn't registering the widget.

I'm looking into the Growl notifications stop working thing. I have an idea I'm checking.
Edit:
I can reproduce the error flawlessly, I just have no idea what is causing it. All the variables that stop the growl notifications from being sent are in the correct values.

Okay, I've uploaded v1.1 here. This fixes the growl error, or at least I think it does. It lasted for about 30 minutes in debug (updates every 10 seconds instead of 60) before I declared it working. Thanks slime for finding this!

Edit:
Argh, the backside of the widget broke. I'm redoing the growl test to make sure I didn't rebreak it while fixing the backside of the widget.

Super Cool

Okay, the backside is all fixed up now. No more funky buttons. Same link as above. I hope there aren't any more major errors like those two so you all can enjoy a flawless widget.

Brilliant . I now have two useful widgets , yours and the one that displays the Tidal status at Aggregate wharf , Greenock.

Cheers

Way awesome. This will actually help guild operations quite a bit. You're the best, SL.

Lemming you misspelled 'Highlight' :P

wow thx :)

And really nice looking too!

Klabbath, sorry to reply to your post in a not-so-timely manner.
Widgets are essentially HTML for content, CSS for style/design, and Javascript for code. To learn the other two, you need to learn some HTML. The HTML in my widget boils down to tables, unordered lists, and very large amounts of the div tag.
Before making this widget I had experience in PHP, Flash Action Script, HTML, and CSS.

No prob. Thanks for the reply.

I have some experience in HTML, but very little. I generally do my web design in WYSIWYG. About 90% of what I do is articles of some length, and it's a lot easier to write them when you're not worried about <br> every three lines.

Thanks for the tips.

My widget is saying there are no players online, but in the active players page it shows lots of people.

You may need to close the widget and re-open it.

Doesn't work, and another person is experiencing the same issues.

Alas, I am too. It isn't spitting anything out at me, or on the console. Perhaps the source code was changed on the Active Users page?

It doesn't work for me too. My ISP uses a http proxy server, could this be the reason why it doesn't work?

No, the whole IRC active players thing is screwed up, which is where the widget gets its information from.
