I set GWT 2.0 as the SDK for my project and it changed to the new
Development Swing UI In-browser mode instead of the old hosted mode. I
placed the given URL in both FF3.5 and IE8 and neither auto installed
the required plugin. Since my app is already compiled it renders fine
but I cannot debug. I tried manually installing the correct plugins
from http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/UsingOOPHM yet
the server is either only serving the compiled files or something is
wrong with the plugin because I cannot debug; breakpoints are not hit.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
