    Hi Todd!

    Wow! Looks like yellowpages.com has changed their format. I'll need to look into this and update the widget. Sorry for the issue...

    This was a great widget, however, lately it hasn't been working the way it did before. Now when I put in the name of a business, it comes up with another box that says "City Guides, Consumer Guides, View Address Book." It doesn't actually come up with name of the place...is there some setting I need to change?

    Hi David!

    Retaining the city is a really good suggestion that I'll put in version 1.2.

    As far as the error that you're getting.

    Its great to finally have a yellow pages. Would it be possible for the widget to retains my my city like it does the state? When I click on an entry, to access Map-Rama, I get an error that K could "not open W, Business Finder!" but it still displays the map, so just need to get rid of the error message. Thanks again.

    Hi Dave!

    Oh is my face red! Two mistakes in a day. First I upload a bad update to another widget, then I miss something on this one. I have a fix for you, and Ive uploaded it to the Gallery. If you want it quicker, please eMail me at howard.deiner@deinersoft.com. It seems that yellowpages in California allows addresses with "#", "$", and "*" in them. Uggghh.
