No prior knowledge of the Google gadgets specification is needed and all of the examples have been tested on Oracle Database XE (and will probably run on Oracle Database 11<EM>g</EM> as well).</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/mearelli-igoogle.html"><P><IMG alt="Figure 1" src="http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/images/mearelli-igoogle-f1.gif" /></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/64760FE5-37A7-4A29-B0E0-B06EC1062F0B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
