Is this possible?
For the widget to save itself, after the user drags it into a sidebar?
I need to use the widget ID with jQuery inside the widget options form, and I can't do that since the ID is only generated after save.
later edit:
it seems the widget instance does save itself, but the page is not automatically updated with the saved instance. it gets updated only after you press the save button :(
is this a WP bug?
