Hi Dave, We also have the LazyPanel widget which is being promoted from the GWT Incubator to GWT core. The LazyPanel lets you add widgets that you want to lazily load to the panel and call setVisible(true) when you want them to load up and display.
You can check out the LazyPanel on the GWT Incubator project to give it a try, and read up on planning a lazy load design strategy using the LazyPanel on the recent blog post about lazy loading on the GWT blog. GWT incubator: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-incubator/ "Improving performance with on-demand widget creation": http://googlewebtoolkit.blogspot.com/2008/11/improving-performance-with-on-demand.html Hope that helps, -Sumit Chandel On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 1:08 PM, Adam T <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ...and runAsync() is already in the trunk if you are comfortable > building from there (http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/ > makinggwtbetter.html#workingoncode<http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/makinggwtbetter.html#workingoncode> > ). > > I use it in a similar situation to what you describe and see good > results.
