This code should change z-order every two seconds. But it does this only once.

Code:
function datetimecore1OnUpdate(Sender)
{
  if (widget.WindowZPosition >= 1)
  {
    widget.WindowZPosition = -1;
    text1.Text = "Bottom";
  }
  else
  {
    widget.windowZPosition = 2;
    text1.Text = "Top";
  }
}

I can't help you with the script but I think you should use the "timercore" instead of datetimecore...

If anybody else is experiencing this bug I found a "fix". It will cause widget to blink when changing z-order, but it's better than nothing.
Code:
function datetimecore1OnUpdate(Sender)
{
  if (widget.WindowZPosition >= 1)
  {
    text1.Text = "Bottom";
    setZOrder(-1);
  }
  else
  {
    text1.Text = "Top";
    setZOrder(2);
  }
}

function setZOrder(z)
{
  setZOrder.z = z;
  widget.Hide();  // Blink
  widget.Show();  //
}

function widgetOnShow()
{
  if (typeof setZOrder.z != 'undefined')
    widget.WindowZPosition = setZOrder.z;
}

As I told you since you want a function that it repeats every 2 secs I think you should use the timecore core.
Example:

Right. I could also try setDelay() or setTimeout(). But what it has to do with the bug? Isn't this an off-topic here?

I tried your first widget and it seems to work OK every two seconds top / bottom and in front / behind another widget. As you have said the code is executing every two seconds in either method. I can not see the problem.

True, once another window is made active, WindowZPosition = 2 appears to not work. If the widget is made active it works again.
Once it looses the most top position it can not regain it via WindowZPosition, but if set to top most will maintain it with show / hide.

And this is documented here:
http://docs.xwidget.com/index.php?title ... _functions

bringToFront() sets the Z-Index behind the scenes
