Anyone have a sample of a widget reading a .txt/.xml file???

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163370.aspx

I don't see anything related reading /txt or .xml files in that link?

NG,

If you have your Gadget already running then what help do you need to insert the method for reading files into your JavaScript functions?
After the file is streamed to a variable what should happen then? What is in the file? What do you use the file for?

Yes, reading a file would be the information that I was looking for. I'm looking to read a line from a file as an array and simply display it on the widget.

Thanks.
NG,

To be a little more specific my data would look something like the following:

7/24/2011,240,30,31,9
7/25/2011,241,31,32,10
7/26/2011,242,32,33,11
7/27/2011,243,33,34,12
7/28/2011,244,34,35,13
7/29/2011,245,35,36,14
7/30/2011,246,36,37,15
7/31/2011,247,37,38,16
8/1/2011,248,38,39,17
8/2/2011,249,39,40,18
8/3/2011,250,40,41,19
8/4/2011,251,41,42,20
8/5/2011,252,42,43,21
8/6/2011,253,43,44,22
8/7/2011,254,44,45,23
8/8/2011,255,45,46,24
8/9/2011,256,46,47,25


I need to read the line that would match the current date from a text file located on a network drive, G:\dates.txt. The fields should be in an array that can be displayed on the widget..

Does that explain it a little clearer?

NG,

No other input on this problem?

NG,

Exactly what I was hoping to find.

Many thanks.

You are welcome.

Zvonko, every time I edit the gadget by un-compressing the files make my changes then re-compressing them and naming the gadget with the extension gadget, it never loads???

What's the secret that I'm missing here???

NG,

Can you open a question please?
