Jeff, from what I've played with it so far, I tend to agree with you that I'll want to use a GWT widget to display to the user the final output instead of this HTML in my home page. But I think this is going to allow me to get that HTML in the home page so the search engine robots will parse it. Everything I've been reading about SEO is that one of the major keys is to have HTML that the robots will see. Using GWT, we seem to have very little HTML for the robots. Thanks again for your help, Kevin Hi Kevin, Search this list's archives for SEO topics. I don't do much with it, but there is a special URL syntax that will allow your application to return SEO results upon request. SEO is a common topic here.

Re: Manipulate a div section in the html page
Hello, As a followup, I'm having a heck of a time trying to find an example and figure out the syntax and values for the properties to set. I've tried this: DivElement divIntroPageElement = DivElement.as(Document.get().getElementById(introPage)); //divIntroPageElement.setPropertyString(visibility, hidden); //divIntroPageElement.setPropertyString(display, none); divIntroPageElement.setPropertyString(style.display, none); ...and none of them work. Do any of you any of you have any insights on what I should pass to the setPropertyString method (assuming that is the method I should be using).?

Here's one to get you started: Attach an id to the div tag, then in the GWT, use DivElement divElement = DivElement.as(Document.get().getElementById(theId)); Although this will give you the hook you need, you probably want to just delete the element from the DOM, then replace it with one or more GWT widgets. My goal is to have my home page intro text and images in the HTML page so that the search engine robots will parse it but then once the user is using the site, hide the section and replace it with the content from the GWT code.

Thanks, Kevin Try wrapping the DIV in an HTML tag and using setVisible See http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/user/client/ui/HTML.html#wrap%28com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element%29 So, it would be HTML.wrap(Document.get().getElementById(theId)).setVisible(false); To reiterate, this probably is not what you really want to be doing.

Manipulate a div section in the html page
Hello, In my default html page that drives my GWT app, I would like to have some html text, etc. within a div section. Then in GWT be able to make that div section invisible and visible.
