OSX Leopard Unit Converter widget, fixed

If, like me, you work in several currencies, you may find it an irritation that the currency converter aspect of the Unit Converter widget is broken in OSX 10.5.6. I have fixed it. Just a minor correction to the .js file. Simply replace the existing widget file (Library/widgets) with this one, and all will work properly again.

OK, I just tried downloading and installing this on my MacBook, it said 'privileges'.
A workaround to this is to open Dashboard, 'kill' the existing unit converter, and install the modified widget in 'user/library/widgets'. Then double click it. Should be fine.

Thanx a lot man, this fixed my Converter widget!!!
But the problem is not Leopard 10.5.6 it's a bug that comes from Safari 4 beta. The Converter widget works fine in 10.5.6 until you install Safari 4 beta. It's the same on all my harddrives.

Aha. Safari is to blame. Yes, thst makes sense, it was fine until I installed that. Weird, eh?

I have it tested back and forth. The Currency converter functions just fine prior to Safari 4 beta, and after ? it doesn't. I therefore uninstalled the beta and the converter once again worked fine. And stopped working after I reinstalled the beta...!
My guess is that the converter is depending on Safari for to be updated and somewhere on that line there is a bug.
But once again, thanx a million for this fix, I much appreciate it!!!
