Description From Piebe 2005-04-27 05:30:33

If the visible attribute of the Link widget is set to false. The following error
is displayed: "image object for xxx not found?".

Possible solution: 
Add following two lines to InitDefaults:
 if (!$this->mbVisible)
                return ;

 -- just out of curiosity, is there a real use for making a Link widget hidden
or is it just to remove it temporarily from a template? --

I will commit a fix for this to cvs (version 2.1 - not 2.0) shortly.

In the application I am working on, visibility of some widgets depend on the
rights of the user that has logged in.

perfect answer!  I had never considered that but it is an excellent use of this
feature.

Looking to this one.

I tested the Link widget with the attribute set to false and no error comes out.
 There is no JavaScript error and no PHP error as well.  I tested on Linux.

I checked in the widget code and the fix has been applied.  So this bug is
already fixed but not marked as such.
