Here is my solution, based on the fact that RootPanel.get() gives you an
acces to any element of the page... :
1 : first do your template in HTML, with a CSS layout or whatever you like.
There are tons of css based layout at a google click :-)
2 : in your HTML file, define the 3 areas with <div> tags (with "id"s
attributes)
for example (with an ugly table !):
<table>
<tr>
<td colspan=2>
<div id="header"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td >
<div id="leftColumn"/>
</td>
<td >
<div id="workingArea"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
3 : Next, in your GWT module, create 3 panels, and add them in the div tags
with RootPanel.get("id");
Something like :
HorizontalPanel headerPanel;
VerticalPanel columnPanel;
CellPanel workPanel;
// Init panels, add widgets, etc....
RootPanel.get("header").add(headerPanel);
RootPanel.get("leftColumn").add(columnPanel);
RootPanel.get("workingArea").add(workPanel);
et voila :-)
I've used this mechanism several time, it's very easy to do, and it's also
a very simple way to reuse an existing HTML templates.
Or if you work with a web designer.
GWT is basicaly a DOM manipulator, in fact.
