Hi Csaba,
That's not really how GWT is best used. It's better to look at a GWT
app as a single "page" containing a number of widgets. For example, if
you have an number of different forms you might implement each one as
a separate Composite and stack them in a DeckPanel (or TabPanel etc)
or generate them on demand in a single container widget. You might
drive this from some navigation widget based on e.g. a menu or tree.
If you have a large chunk of static HTML content you need to include
somewhere you can put it in a Frame widget from which it works like
straight HTML pages. I did this for some help files for example.
Technically you can build your site in a traditional manner using HTML
pages and embed separate GWT mini-apps in these pages as required.
This might be a viable strategy if a) it is an open site with a lot of
static HTML content and no overall security framework, and b) there
are a limited number of mini-apps that really are completely separate
from each other. However as soon as these mini-apps need to
communicate with each other and share state you will run into trouble.
For example implementing user sign-in, permissions and preferences
across the site would be more difficult.

gregor
