Yeah. I probably will.

I LOVE my “toy” widgets! ??

My big headache is making sure that what I have working at home, will smoothly upload to my site and work there too, with minimum fuss.

I would like to have nice features to create some nice content.

I am actually using the CoolClock script set that is currently available on that site. This one is not a WordPress plug-in because my site was not created with WordPress, originally.

If it is any help, my lady has found another site that has a JQuery version of the CoolClock that is more style-able and is said to work on more browsrers.

Try here.

Maybe you might find a solution with this one?

Just a thought.

I wonder if a different container, like DIV, can be used in place of CANVAS? That is one idea I have been “toying” with.

That’s okay.

Most of the plug-ins I have tried seem to not work on version 3.5.

So I scrapped the project and started over with the older 3.4.2 of WordPress. I believe that version 3.5 is broken or has broken many of the plug-ins and themes. This is to be expected with most new major-version upgrades.

So I will stick with version 3.4.2 for while being that it still works properly.

Thanks anyway. ??

Any thoughts on the fact that “Coolclock” uses the <canvas> tag which is an HTML 5.0 innovation?

IE 8/9 do not render much in HTML 5.0 because they were out in the market before HTML 5.0 a “working standard” ( as they say in the W3C ).

If someone were to try to get it to work within a different tag that IS common with IE, that might be the only “fix” for it.

I use the Coolclock widget on my own website ( just the “copy and pasted” code, not the WP-plug-in ) and have noticed the incompatibility issue too!

I hope this gives you a little more info. ( I have quite a bit of HTML and JavaScript experience. )

To add:

Half of the functions will not display.

I can not pick font size, etc.
