By default, all third party Gadgets are sandboxed into an IFRAME for security reasons, and they are loaded from the Start.com domain. Inline Gadgets are Gadgets that are not sandboxed inside an IFRAME, loads directly onto the page and are loaded from the Live.com domain. Currently, only Microsoft internal or partner certified Gadgets can be inline Gadgets. Inline Gadgets have access to the page’s DOM and cookies on the Live.com domain. They also have access to additional API that deal with the Gadget header and footer.
