Re: placing a widget in a dropdown
I also needed this, the idea is simple. You have 2 options: 1. From the plethora of gwt extension libraries (gwt-mosaic, gwtx, smartgwt, ext js, MyGWT), I'm pretty sure you can find a listbox that will fit your needs 2. Create a custom listbox from scratch, adjusting it to your needs. If you plan to do this, the simplest way is to extend a Composite, and having the dropdown list as a PopupPanel or AbsolutePanel (with big z- index so it stays on top).

Re: placing a widget in a dropdown
Hi Jaimon, There's a widget i have created long time ago, it's a listbox functionality, but where i have control on all css and styles and design of it. As you know, the normal listbox of gwt depends on your browser look and feel. But the idea is simple: You need to have a textbox with image(drop down arrow). Then, when you click on the image, a popup will appear below it. The popup can contain a scrollpanel with a vertical panel. The vertical panel can conatin any widget you want, a label, an image, a textbox, etc ... Hope this will be helpful, let me know if you need any help.
