I was too eager to release the Kindle-This widget. I forgot to take out some debug code that I had in it. I was experimenting with some other parameters and I left one of them in as a requirement, even though there was no way to enter it. As a result, the widget broke. <\/p>\n

It worked fine here and on my test site because I had run the previous test versions which set the required parameters.<\/p>\n

About 50 people downloaded the original version and I hope that I did not get 50 people mad at me.<\/p>\n

I think that in the beginning, there are robots that get the code. The programs are them listed other places as downloads. Also, I think that hackers are looking for a security violation. Perhaps a dozen out of that first 50 are mad at me. I hope that they notice that I released a fixed version the morning.<\/p>\n
