Problem with using two GeoRSS widgets with the Viewer

Good afternoon:

I was puzzled with a quite strange problem. My Flex viewer has two GeoRSS widgets ( preloaded open)
consuming two independent georss feeds.

The problem is that ONLY ONE of the widgets shows list of items ( another one is empty ). This behavior ( which widget is populated and which is not ) is random. Though I observe, that GeoRSS widget, which is the second in the list of widget definitions, gets the data and the first one stays empty.

Both xml files ( test for georss feeds ) in the same directory and work fine. When I have just one GeoRSS widget added to the viewer - everything works fine.

Your advice will be greatly appreciated,

Kind regards,
Alexander

Can you try copying the GeoRSSWiget.swf to a new file and then configure one of the widgets to load this new swf file?

Dasa, thank you for the prompt reply.

I have tried that: it didn't work. During my experiments, I found that it worked only if I had two files of GeoRSS widget ( as you suggested 😞 one of which refered to InfoWidget and the other to SimpleInfoWidget. (it doesn't work if I have InfoWidget and InfoWidget1).

Kind regards,
Alexander
