Display the joys of chemistry for all to see on your Dashboard!

This was my first widget, and it's a simple periodic table where you can click on the elements to display basic information: Symbol, Name, Atomic Number, Mass, and Phase under standard conditions. Double-clicking on an element will open a link to that element's wikipedia page for additional information. Now up to version 1.4, I've added the ability to select different elemental properties, and the table will remap the colors around these property values. This allows people to observe some basic periodic trends. The user preferences are also stored now, so the widget will always restart with the user's preferred style.

Note that the atomic masses are those accepted by IUPAC. The other properties were obtained primarily from wikipedia and from other web sources (such as a periodic table web resource at MIT) when the wikipedia info. was insufficient or questionable. There appear to be conflicting values for properties such as Atomic Radius, so be aware that these other properties don't have the IUPAC stamp on them.

I hope you enjoy the widget.

Version 1.4 has a font pull down menu on the back. If you would like to add your own font, you need to edit the .js file in the widget package. If you need help or instructions on how to do this, send me email.
