Great module, very useful and fast, in most cases doesn't need to reload the entire webpage. Thank you :)

I should note that it only requires inlining for cookies to work in IE6. (Yes, it saves with cookies, since there's no Google persistence API and I haven't implemented remote storage-- which has its own security issues, anyway.) So, if you use a browser other than Internet Explorer, you can have it non-inlined by using this URL instead:

It's a great module that's simple and clean.  Two main comments:

1) Being able to do multiple lists is great.  But, allowing each list to have its own separate title would be very handy, along with something indicating there are other lists started to check, so you don't forget about one.

2) No remote storage.  A personalized webpage is great because it can be accessed from any computer.  The To-Dos cannot.  I recognize there may be security issues, which would require warnings, etc.  But, until I can access my ToDos from any computer, this module isn't very useful for me and I can't use it. :(

3) I have cookies turned off (with exceptions for google.com) in Firefox on Ubuntu.  When I restart my browser, I lose my ToDos.  I'm assuming it's a cookie issue and I'll play with it a bit more.

Otherwise, I think it's simple and beautifully executed and I commend you for doing such good work.

For #1, you should be able to assign a different title to each To-Do List module on your Google PH page.

For the rest, try RL's To-Do list. It's apparently implemented all the stuff I was meaning to add in time, such as storing your list remotely (mine just saves to cookies, as you've apparently figured out). URL:

Great module! it'll be the best if you can make a remote storage.
Yes, RL todo list is certainly a solution, but the module does not fit in the slick look of the whole page and this one looks great!

This is, ideally, a very useful thing, but the fact it doesn't let me view it from anywhere takes the point out of it for me.
