Steps To Reproduce

(1) Start Java version of Shindig Server (2.5.0)

(2) Open Firefox browser

=> In our case: http://localhost:9082/containers/commoncontainer/

(4) Input one of the following external gadgets into the text filed in the "Manage Gadgets" section
=> The Daily Puppy - http://dailypuppy.com/gmod/thedailypuppy.xml
=> NYTimes.com Top Stories - http://dailypuppy.com/gmod/thedailypuppy.xml

(5) Click the "Preload and Add" button
=> BUG: Gadget is not rendered properly (missing elements such as images)
=> Note: There are no errors in the FF Firebug Console
=> Note: There are no failing requests in the FF Firebug Net tab
=> Note: There are no relevant errors in the Java Console (launched via Eclipse Jetty)

Note: The above gadgets load fine using the deprecated "shindig.container" API using the same version of Shindig.
