Instructions for use	In order to see the evolution of a stock value, you have to click the current stock's name at the top of the widget. Now, select a new stock or index from the list popping up in the modal panel. Remark: This widget uses a very new technology through which Flash graphs are being generated 'on the fly' by executing clienside JavaScript functions. Lots of work remains to be done in this technology as we can see that the Flash objects often dissappear from the widget mostly when scrolling or resizing the browser window. (Quality depends greatly on the browser) We will soon replace this technology with a pure JavaScript technology that also offers nice graphing libs which will make this widget a lot more stable.

Technical info	A server application fetches a highly complex XML object from Yahoo Finance upon each and every request. This XML object is converted into a more simple and lightweight JSON object that gets sent back to the widget's front-end. Here, in the widget's JavaScript libs, a function takes care of the construction of a robust HTML body containing a.o. the hidden panel showing a select list of other stock- or index names while another function executes an asynchronous HTTP call (AJAX) to the widgetserver from which it receives the JSON object in the response. Finally another JavaScript pushes the JSON data in the HTML code, builds a Flash chart and refreshes this chart every 60 seconds.

Technical info	A server application initiates a webcrawler that goes online and makes a daily copy of the weather forecast data as it is being published by the BDB, both in Dutch and in French. Also, another automatic server process takes care of the transformation of the html page originally composed as a complex html table gets into a universally usable dataformat, XML. On the widget's frontside, on the 'onDomComplete' event of the widget, a JavaScript process builds the HTML structure of the widget and fetches the data from the server by executing asynchronous HTTP calls (AJAX). Finally, this XML object is getting looped through and the data is injected into the HTML code. The 'next' and 'previous' buttons execute yet another JavaScript function on their 'onClick' event and hide the currently displayed forecast and make the widget display the forecast for the next or the previous day.
