My first widget

Hi folks,

I know we've been talking about FrogCode IDE for some time, but today I got my hands on an alpha build.  With only a few pointers from @Chris.Smith, I've been able to build a widget in Frog.
 

I've called it Embed or Link and it's a widget which detects if you're trying to embed a website which cannot be embedded because it doesn't have HTTPS security.  If it can't be embedded it provides a link instead.

Using basic IF statements in Javascript, I was able to really quickly assemble a widget (less than an hour).  The screenshot below shows four examples of it in action.  Hopefully you can see it also takes embed codes!

There is literally not much work left by Chris and the team before we start talking to schools for a beta trial.  If you're comfortable with code and would like to be part of the beta trial, let me know here or PM me.
