I have a stupid programming question....


So, here I am tryign to write a google gadget that is syndicated to another page. I want to create a single sign on so that I can ask for the username/password in that gadget and share those bits of information with other gadgets. So far this doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Zoho, but bear with me on this.

Cookies don't share between gadgets - that I have discovered. UserPrefs don't work in syndicated gadgets - I found that out too. Right now, I can't figure out how to do a single sign on for a number of gadgets... and i was willing to claim it wasn't allowed until I noticed my zoho gadgets (On the same page) DO share signon info between them...

So it's possible... So if there is anyone here from zoho, can you give me a 50,000 foot view of how you did that?
