Add the RTM Gadget to Gmail

(closed account) says:
I saw that Google has added the ability to add any Gadget to Gmail and was curious to see how well the RTM gadget would work.

1. Click on the Labs icon in Gmail
2. Enable "Add any gadget by URL"
3. Go to Settings and Gadgets
4. Paste http://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/modules/googleig/rtm.xml in the box and click add

The module gets a little squished in Gmail's layout, but it still works.

I tried this but I get the following error after step #4:
"Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors."

The gadget has been working nicely, but today after upgrading to FF 3.0.8 it disappeared. I've got this message in Gmail:

"Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors."

Er, same problem here:

'"Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors."

When someone at RtM has the answer, can you let us know?

Thanks

FF 3.0.8 upgrade must just be coincidence. I have same problem on another machine that is runnin FF 2.0.2.

same problem as of this morning.. funny thing, i run gmail in chrome, but also updated to FF 3.0.8 this morning as well, so it's apparently just coincidental. anyways, i went ahead and added the https gadget link, and it started working just fine..

Hi all,
If you're having issues with the Google Gadget, I suggest lodging a support ticket.
