[quote author="Phil Sturgeon" date="1246913103"]What exactly will be stored in the body? How do things like RSS feeds get processed, etc?[/quote]
Anything could be stored in the body, XML, JSON, text, HTML etc. For development purpose I made a simple widget named "Delicious". It doesn't do much besides creating a variable and loading the widget view. Right now it doesn't use the database yet, but if it would it would fetch the following from the body field :
Code:
{"message":"Hello World","author":"Yorick Peterse"}
The widget right now looks as following :
Code:
<?php
/**

* @name Delicious

class Delicious extends Yummy {
// Run the plugin
function run()
{
// Set the variable
$array['username'] = 'Yorick Peterse';
// Load a view file for this widget
$this->display('WIDGET NAME','WIDGET VIEW FILE NAME',$array);

and the view file :
