Nice work, this and Crossover combined mean no need to BootCamp for daily chores in EVE. :)
Several widgets clutter the display fast, though, so I wonder whether it would be possible to consider one (or both) of these features for a future release ?
- "Appearence" pref, to select font and background color (to help differentiate accounts/widgets at a glance),
- Multi-account widget (once the KeyChain issue is solved ofc) that lists training to complete in a top-down fashion.
Thanks for this useful (and nice looking) tool.

Still having problems loading my alt. My main now behaves perfectly but the alt is stuck on updating with 0:0:0 for the timer.
There are two main possibilities for this. One is that you have an old version, in which this was a bug I discovered and fixed. The other is that your skill is finished on the alt. :)
Make sure and download the newest from the website. Click my sig to go to the website.

Try to download it from the website again. You might have caught the first update I put out yesterday, in which I later found a blaring obvious update hang. The second version I put out yesterday (I just replaced the old one, and didn't even version it off) fixes that. If you're still having trouble after that, post back here again so I can be aware of it.

You're very welcome.
I think these are excellent ideas. In fact, the first incarnation of ESM was a multi-account version (never published). I definitely see value in seeing at-a-glance which character is the next one that will finish a skill. Atm, I like the 1-account version better, but I have some ideas on how to be able to see who is finishing first. I will definitely add the Color Change feature to my TODO list. You also just gave me another idea on how to load skill training info when Dashboard starts so that you don't have to put your account info each time... all without having to save the password or mess with KeyChain just yet.

Ok, let's see if we can figure this out. What is showing on the face of the widget when it freezes on updating? e.g. Character Name, Timer counting down.
The way the program gets the data is by sending a normal web request (http) to the eve-online website (though it first has to "log in" via https). What it gets back is XML, which is easier to read programmatically. Then it parses through the XML to figure things out, and makes more requests as necessary to get all the information (figures out which character is training a skill, and then figures out the name of the skill).
Anyway, let me know what you are seeing on the front of the widget when it hangs and by that I should be able to tell what section of code it hangs on, and then we'll go from there.

Well, I have an exciting update for you guys and gals. I added the following to ESM.
Automatic Update notification system
Saves username information for each widget
Loads last training information on widget startup
Still does not remember passwords for security reasons until I can get a KeyChain plugin developed.
Click my sig to go to the site and download the update.

Still working beautifully for me.
Other features I'd like to see...
~The actual date / time the skill will finish not just a countdown.
~Percentage Comple and/or time elapsed
~Total skill points accrued
Thanks again for all your hard work!

I believe these are also great ideas. Especially the Date of Completion. I already have that, so it should be no problem to display. The problem is finding space to fit it.
I definitely want to put the Completion Date in there, though I will probably have to shrink the timer to do it. The other stuff will probably have to wait until I move to a bigger UI, which I don't currently have plans for. :(
Oh yes, and I also have a way in mind to designate the character who will complete a skill first, when you have multiple ESM widgets on your dashboard. I think I will make the timer red or something along those lines. That is dependent on a few other things though, so expect it soon after the KeyChain plugin.

Fanastically useful to us Mac Users who (grudgingly) boot into Windows due to CCPs unprogressive development policies. You have my gratitude.

I still can't get the widget to update. I know that my main character was not the first one created on the account. Is the easy fix to delete the other two characters, then try to make the widgit work? If i do that, would the widgit still work if i created new characters after deleting them, or are those slots forever stamped 1, 2, 3?

Do you have the newest version? Flip to the back and if it doesn't say v1.0.0 in the lower left corner, then you need to download the newest version. This should not be a problem in the newest version, since it first gets a list of all the characters, then goes back and looks at each one to see if it has a skill training. It's possible that even with the newest version there is some XML weirdness that is causing this. If you have the latest and greatest and it's still doing this, then let me know that, and I'll look into this and see if I can get it fixed.

I do have v1.0.0 and it still doesn't work for me. It does work for my other account - i only have one character on that one. I'll probably just delete the other two characters on my main account for the work around.
Edit: Greetings from a soon to be dead alt.

Only if I use my first one.

Ok, I will see what I can find out. I have to enlist the help of a friend who has multiple characters on his accounts to help me debug this. I'll try to put out an update by the end of the week to address this issue.

After about 2 weeks w/o any problems now I am having the loading bug. It was working. I rebooted and now it is not working. I do have the latest version. Only 1 character / account (2 accounts).

Blue Wraith,
Thanks for creating this widget. I downloaded the new version released today, but my training data still doesn't load.
I opened the widget in dashcode to do some debugging. After entering my account info, the widget throws an error during the chkTraining(rsXML) method. The XML recovered doesn't contain an element called 'character'. The xml recovered looks to be a html string with the words "Please wait" instead of my accounts actual xml.
Any ideas.

To add to your troubles...
I've just installed the widget and logged in as one of my characters. It is however displaying the name and current skill of another of my chars (this one). |

You seem to have the same problem that I do so this is my quickfix (bold means new lines).
Change xCatch to this:
Quote:
function xCatch(tx, Catcher, url) {
var matches;
if (/Please enter your account/.test(tx.toString())) {
if (lTries < lMax) Login(Catcher, url);
else blankTimer('Too many login tries');
} else if ((matches = /document.onload=window.location.href='(.*)&s=\d+&sid=(\d+)';/.exec(tx.toString())) && (matches.length == 3)) {
// We got redirected with a new sid. Update information and fetch new page
sid = matches[2];
getPage(matches[1], Catcher);
} else Catcher(tx);
}
Is there really no way of keeping the formatting? =/ Hope it will work out anyways.
