gapi.client undefined ONLY in chrome browser and ONLY as a gadget

[James Driscoll]

Hi, I'm not sure if it's my code or the chrome browser but I've got a problem that is working in all other other browsers....

I have a calendar gadget that's reporting gapi.client undefined when I try to load it in google chrome (it's working in firefox,IE,opera,Safari )

in the html I've got

    <script src="https://apis.google.com/js/client.js?onload=handleClientLoad"></script>  

since I'm also using jQuery my code looks a little like this...

function handleClientLoad(){

 //is jquery ready??

 var app;  app=new App();

  app.initialise();

 };

....

App=function(){

initialise=function{

 jQuery(document).ready(function(){

 // gapi and jQuery should both be loaded here ??

...

 gapi.client.setApiKey(apiKey);

 }

};

};

when I load the gadget in google chrome there's a gapi object but it doesn't have a client (and therefore no client.setAPIKey) - the object looks like this...

1. gapi: Object
1. _: Object
2. config: Object
3. load: function (a,b){return Y(function(){return $(a,b)})}
4. loaded_0: function (a){u[v](a);H[L]=e}
5. loaded_1: function (a){u[v](a);H[L]=e}
6. __proto__: Object

To further complicate matters I can run the code directly in google chrome from my website the issue only arises when trying to run it in the gadget IFrame

e.g. https://www.google.com/calendar/render?gadgeturl=http://mywebsite.com/myApp/myApp.xml

Is my code wrong or should I be reporting a bug to google chrome?

many thanks

on further searching I'm wondering if it's related to this....

Issue 3:

JS Client does not work in Gadget setting

Though this problem was reported Dec 20, 2011 so I'm hoping someone has more up to date news :-)

Perhaps I should ask the question in a different way....

Has anyone managed to get a calendar gadget running  in google chrome using this api?
