Netvibes Ecosystem

This is one of my favorite module !

The coolest.

Kickass. Love the interface. It would be nice to have a way of editing what cartoons appear, though.

Having problems with it working in IE6. I see the links for the comics but nothing happens when I click on the link.

@Joe: Yep, It doesn't work on IE6. I tried to fix it but can't even spot the problem. If you got any clues...

@Kyrlian: I have not looked at netvibes api, yet. However, if you want to send me your source I would be happy to review and offer suggestions.
It is strange that it does not even raise an error.

@Kyrlian: I went to the URL and found it. I will let you know what I find.

Love it! Keep up the great work!

very good... but where are Calvin & Hobbes ?? :(

Calvin and Hobbes seems broken.

Doesn't work with IE7B2 either.

about Calvin&Hobbes: Well, my modules goes to this webpage http://www.angadi.org/comics.html and parse it, and C&H has been removed from there.
The author has a request link at the bottom of the page.

Hi

I'm using Opera v 8.53, and I tried to used this module. My problem is that I only getting an error message and my browser closes. Thus I cant use my netvibes site anymore, because when I'm trying to login my browser crashes and closes. So I cant remove it eitgher..
Gah..

@riflaa
Sorry about that, I'll have a look.
Can you tell me
-the error message
-have you other user modules installed ? / which
cheers

It is really nice to check the new cartoons evry morning. But the selection of cartoons is not very good. Can you include "Penny arcade"? It is the best comic strip ever.

Very good module, thanks.

Is this still not working in IE? I can get the hover to work in Firefox, not not in IE at all. Will that be fixed?

@riflaa : Works with opera9!Hourra!
@pf : ask to the guy at http://www.angadi.org/comics.html
@Netvibes user : works with latest Fx and Opera9. No IE fix scheduled.

This module is really cool, would be cool if front pages of major news papers could pop-up like that. Nice selection of comics, you got just about all my favorites. No Mark Trail? just Kidding but Lil' Abner would be cool, but I don't htink that it's still in print.

Great Module!

I wanted to be able to only show the comics that I was interested in, so I went ahead and made some modifications so that you can configure this module. If anyone is interested in trying it out it's at http://www.et.byu.edu/~philhans/netvibes/comics.php

on days like sunday...
where the comic is large...
i can't see the whole comic on my screen...
is there any way to fix that?

I modified the version I have created to scale the image to the browser if it is too big. You can also click on the comic name to open a new window with the full-size image.

In case anyone is interested, I have also added a few of the online comics such as PVPOnline, Ctrl-alt-del, and PennyArcade to my version. I also added Calvin and Hobbes

thegreatphilhansen!!! Your mod works like a charm in IE6! The Oscar goes to You :)

Cool module, but only worked once in Firefox 1.5. Not at all in IE6.

Doesn't seem to be loading for me anymore (Firefox 1.5.0.7). It says "Loading" then "Fetching," but no list of comics ever shows up.

I can confirm the fact that it's not loading anymore. I see the same thing as Groovymarlin does. It says "Loading" or "Fetching" but the list never shows.

This one, and the modified version, are both dead it seems.

It's broken. Don't bother installing until it's fixed.

The website both our modules parse to get most of the comics has gone done. I have been planning to add the logic directly into my module so that it will work again, I have just been busy since school started. In the meantime, Calvin and Hobbes and the 3 online comics still work.

*gone down

Please Kyrlian, try to fix it ! I miss the comics a lot.

I got around to fixing my module, so it now works again. It is located at the same link.

philhans: thank you. god. i was missing my comics. i always started the day with a smile when i had them. and now they are back :)

When using Firefox 1.5.07, I cannot get the cartoon to scroll to the right. It just snaps back to the left.

How did you fix it? My module is still blank, and has been since September.

mine's still blank either.
my days are grey and evil since.

Please tell how to fix! thx!

The webpage the Krylian's module uses to get the comic information from has changed it's layout, so for the time being it won't display anything. If you want to view the comics you can use the module I have written which is located at http://www.et.byu.edu/~philhans/netvibes/comics.php

Nice work, philhans! I was expecting to just use yours as a temporary replacement. But I like the customization and selection much more. I'm sticking with yours. Why don't you add it to the modules section by itself?

This module has been broken for a couple weeks now... is anyone else experiencing problems?

I do. It's broken! Any idea why?

Seems like this module is not working any more!! Can somebody fix it!!! Man this was the reason i was using netvibes!! now what??

I've been trying to get the module to work on the Mozilla Firefox v1.5.0.6, but it doesn't seem to load anything.

If you are having problems with the module I posted earlier loading, I have put it up on a new hosting location. You can find it at: http://eco.netvibes.com/modules/9319/revised-daily-comics

Hey guys, been away, thanks to philhans for keeping up :) I've fixed my module, and I'll have a look at your's!

it obviously lacks xkcd.com :D
great one :)

I can't get either one to work. The original URL just displays the comics names and nothing else happens. The philhans one has an XML error

Doesn't seem to work in IE7. Just get list of cartoon names

Ditto with BLuemoon- Doesn't seem to work in IE7. Just get list of cartoon names

Foxtrot is broken?

@User: Foxtrot is broken from time to time, it worked for a few days last week... I'll get a look at it.
@IE folks: Doesnt work on IE, any fix idea would be great :)

thanks

Hey, why is Garfield no more?

Ok, Garfield is back.

Very Nice module!

Where did Dilbert go? That's the only reason I subscribed...

Would you consider adding a couple of other comics?

http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic
http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php

Thanks

appears to be broken at the moment,
no feeds at all

btw I LOVE this module, thnx

really looked forward to be able to read the Daily Comics but it just wont work on IE...HOPE YOU CAN FIX THE PROBLEM

Hi, just modified this widget to be ginger/uwa compliant.
Previous version is still available as nvm_cartoons_legacy.htm
Maybe this one will work on IE :)
THIS WIDGET MUST BE INLINE TO SEE THE IMAGES PROPERLY.

Note : you'll have to remove the existing module, and add it as an uwa module (add content/essential/modules/page2/UWA module), click edit and past the widget url http://kyrlian.googlepages.com/nvm_cartoons.htm, tick inlined and add.

@Manny&Maggie: Now works in IE6!

Regards, k.

Great to see it working again..........but only two cartoons showing?

Yeap, angadi.org (the source of the links) seems broken for now...
