You use the same HTML/CSS techniques for building fluid layouts in GWT as in 
any other framework. You want to rely as much as possible on the browser's 
ability to re-flow the content, instead of using fixed width/heights. Typically 
this means using a LayoutPanel to split the page into 2-3 areas (e.g. Top Menu, 
Left Menu, and Main Area), and using pure HTML (HTML panel) or FlowPanels to 
organize the content inside those areas.

Normally you would also wrap the main area in a ScrollPanel for situations when 
content does not fit into the visible area of the browser window.

Personally, I almost never use Vertical or Horizontal panels, because you can 
easily achieve the same layouts with CSS while keeping them more flexible.

I suggest that you do some additional reading on "using CSS for fluid page 
layouts": you can use all of suggested techniques in GWT.
