The Text Gadget Is Broken

For over a week, we've had anxious spider web log owners unable to exercise or update the Text gadgets on their blogs.

The "Save" push is non working, on my Text gadget!

or maybe

I encounter Javascript void(0) when hitting Save!

Blogger truly fixed this problem, before this calendar month - in addition to it broke again, presently afterwards. Not everybody understands that seeing "javascript:void(0);" is a symptom of the problem - non the work itself.

This problem, fortunately, has a reasonably effective workaround.

The HTML / JavaScript gadget, in addition to the Text gadget, are virtually the same gadget.

If you lot add together an HTML gadget, using "Add a Gadget" - in addition to you lot direct "Rich Text", when setting the gadget up, - you lot volition convey a Text gadget.

Just hold upwardly careful - when you lot convey a Text gadget, the house where you lot selected "Rich Text" volition read "Edit Html". If you lot click on "Edit Html", you'll convey an HTML / JavaScript gadget, which volition thence read "Rich Text".

If you lot desire a Text gadget, brand certain that the gadget label reads "Edit Html". It's that simple.

This volition non resolve every problem.

• The inability to update existing Text gadgets continues to hold upwardly a problem.
• The like inability to update Linklists has no workaround.

This is only a pocket-sized workaround - but a useful one, where applicable.
