Currency Converter

by Shyam Reddy

This Widget gets the currency conversion rate from the Internet. It's currently using www.oanda.com to get the rates.

This is actually an existing Widget with a different look & feel and more functionality.

Now this Widget is On-The-Fly converter. Just click on 'From Currency Amount', 'From Country' or 'To Country' values on the widget to update them directly. Every update will trigger an update on the widget. As simple as that. :)
Current Version: 1.9

    Thanks soul for your feedback and tip. This cross os issues are keeping me busy. He he! Will work on v1.7 as soon as I can.

    Am embedding flags into the widget to avoid third party dependency. This will be part of v1.7

    Thanks Joeb. I purposely designed the wigdet to this size as I didnot want it to be small, compact and difficult to read. I will use the blank space effectively with more features (not immediately though). I designed multi-converter just the way you wanted (conversions horizontal rather than vertical). Hope that will please use.

    This is sweet!

    I can't wait to see the multi-converter.

    But for the single currency model, it would be great if the widget was much smaller. Optionally losing the header and footers and maybe taking the conversion horizontal instead of vertical. But it's a wonderful widget, thank you!

    great widget but i'm having trouble getting it to do what i think it's supposed to do. if i put $24.95 into the first country (usa), shouldn't the second country (canada) readout be the canadian exchange in canadian dollars? it says 1.21930 (maybe the exchange rate?). that's probably what $1.00 would be ... but not $24.95. Thanx!

Get It!
