While they still work in standards mode, they will lay out their children somewhat differently. The main difference is that their children will not respect width and height properties (it is common to set children of CellPanels explicitly to 100% width and height). There are also differences in the way that the browser allocates space to individual table rows and columns that can lead to unexpected behavior in standards mode On Jan 17, 3:16 pm, laredotornado <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm using GWT 2.4 and having a problem affecting IE 8 only.
