Hi Deanna

Thanks for the reply. It sounds like from the recent incubator
announcement (http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/
browse_thread/thread/26f883d9b0c02136) that with any luck validation
support might be built into core GWT in the 2.2 time frame (anybody
hazard a guess when this might be)? In the meantime I will take a look
at the validation support built into gwt-incubator.

Thanks

Simon
