These viewer web widgets are a first attempt at making the current Second Life Viewer login screen features available for easy use in third-party viewers. Linden Lab provides a base javascript library which will search the DOM of a given page, populating specifically-named divs with widget content.

Basic implementation details

The example below shows the simplest way to implement these widgets. Simply include the sl.widgets.js library, then include a div with both id="[the widget you want]" and class="second-life-widget". 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="http://lecs-viewer-login-agni.s3.amazonaws.com/pubwidgets/v1/modules/sl.widgets.js">
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="whats-hot-now-widget" class="second-life-widget"></div>
    </body>
</html>

Version 1 of the main sl.widgets.js library currently lives here:

This library will pull in all the supporting content it needs -- other js files, css, and the content for each widget. It uses its own version of jQuery, and will create a separate namespace to avoid conflicts if you already have jQuery installed.
