Problem with some dashboard widgets

[cool11]

I have leopard 10.5.1

I just noticed that some of my most used dashboard widgets do not function at all.
I just cannot click on them. I can see them but that's all. Of course I cannot use them.

I do not know if this is a bug, or incompatibility with leopard.
Is it something else?

I looked at some sites that host some of these widgets but I did not found any leopard information.

Why I cannot use some of my dashboard widgets?

Are they widgets you installed yourself, or ones that came with Leopard? If you installed them yourself, they may not be Leopard-compatible. If they came with Leopard, or the widgets ARE Leopard-compatible but just not functioning, give the DashboardClient process a kick by issuing the following command from the Terminal:

killall -HUP DashboardClient

Bring Dashboard up again for the change to take effect.
