This gadget has worked OK until a few days ago. It now seems to ask to
sign in to Google Docs everytime and when you click its link there
appears a 'oops broken link' message which if you close it actually
has signed in OK and the docs show in the gadget.

Having the same problem here--it worked well until a couple of days
ago, and now it never signs in without the extra steps (including the
"Oops broken link" page).

Any idea when this might be fixed?

the docs widget tells me to "Sign in to your Google Docs account.";
when i click that it shows a 404-not found in Safari -- the URL is
like this:

https://mail.google.com/a/MYDOMAINHERE.com/html/a/MYDOMAINHERE.com

if i strip off everything from "html" to the the end off this URL i
get a series of redirects; once the indirects seemed to loop without
stopping; a second time, the which once seemed infinite, and the next
time successfully loaded my gmail in Safari, with the docs widget
working properly

Yes, I am having the same problem for almost a couple of months now on
the Apps for Domains accounts.

Any chance of fixing this?

This gadget is awesome when it works.

Same problem here. Google Apps standart edition. I now have to click
"Sign in to your Google Docs Account" which leads me to a broken link.
I then click the back button and everything works fine. Once I am
logged in everyting works. If I logout of mail and log back in, the
problem resets.
