I know that seems strange. let me explain.
I have a fairly plain web application, written with GWT, that has
multiple TextBoxes on the page for a user to enter data which is then
written to a MySQL database. After the TextBoxes, there is a "submit"
button. I have done my development on a linux machine, using both
Netscape 7.2 and Firefox 1.5.0.12 as my browsers. Both work
identically and successfully in the linux environment.
I have delivered my "finished" work to my client Windows machine.
After a little Ant configuration adjustment, the application runs in
both IE and FireFox ... but on those browsers the submit button does
not show, at all. ??
On linux I am using GWT 1.5.0. On the windows machine I am using GWT
1.7.
At my office, I have two machines on the same network: the linux
machine on which the webapp runs (tomcat, mySQL, etc.) and a windows
machine which has IE and FireFox on it but not the app. Because they
are on the same network, I am able to access the application running
on the linux machine from the windows machine, using IE and FireFox.
When I run the app from my windows machine, I get the same effect as
at my client office ... the submit button does not show.
Why do you suppose that is???
At least I can duplicate the problem in my environment so I can test
any possible solutions which I may try.
To make the problem complete, here is the specific code which
implements the submit button:
HorizontalPanel maintHorizPanel_25 = new HorizontalPanel();
submitButton = new Button("submit",
new ClickListener() {
public void onClick(Widget sender) {
askReadyToGo();
}
});
submitButton.addStyleDependentName("maintSubmitButton");
maintHorizPanel_25.add(submitButton);
inventoryItemMaintenancePanel.add( new HTML("<br>"));
inventoryItemMaintenancePanel.add(maintHorizPanel_25);
inventoryItemMaintenanceForm.add(inventoryItemMaintenancePanel);
The horizontal position of the submit button is controlled
successfully by a css entry.
Thanks for any ideas that I might try.
Oh, yes ... one other surprise for me in the Windows environment: I
have the background color of the body of the page set to "lightgray".
In the GWT shell browser on windows, the background is just white. It
seems to ignore the lightgray background css. The background color is
okay when run from tomcat on either IE or FireFox. I dont care much
about this, but it was a surprise to me. I do not have this problem
on linux. I just thought it might be another clue as to why I am
experiencing my major problem with the submit button.
