I found the problem. In the download version the ‘class’ => ‘my-widget-class’ is missing from the Parent:: line

Also you need to add the class to the label tags :

echo “\r\n”.”.__(’Title’,'my-widget-class’)

It only seems to be IE that has a problem if that isn’t there.

Hope that helps.

It doesn’t seem to work on Internet Explorer 8. I simply included your file at the end of a plugin I’ve got and the widget appears on the widgets page but its not draggable. This is under wordpress 2.9.2

Thank you for your tutorial!

I would like to enable the users to add fields in the general admin/setting/myplugin of the admin.
Do I have to make this widget first into a plugin?
Can you point me to a place where I can learn how to add dynamic input fields.

Thanks again
