Hi!
I guess the point is that you used a FlowPanel which does not stretch
its children. I found out that this is also true for AbsolutePanel.
Thanks!
BTW: I wonder why you use this construct:
int parentH = dock.getWidgetContainerElement(this).getOffsetHeight();
Why not simply call:

doc.getParent ().gettOffsetHeight(); ?
The latter code would also be usable

Yes. Currently they seem to be aimed at dividing the screen or viewport into

Hi Magnus,
When browsers allow to do a predicable layout than it is possible with
GWT, too.
GWT helps you more or less to overcome some bug, but it isn't perfect.
GWT does not check style and try to workaround bug.
GWT is able to create different approaches (css) for an specific
browser AND

You are trying to float a fixed=width widget in the centre of the screen. It

It means that you need to look it up or ask in a forum dedicated to CSS.

The java code looks clean, but the html file is pumped up with of

Does this code belong to the solution or is it just generated from
other sources?

Just from the webappcreator. Nothing special.

Hi Alejandro,
forget my question about the html file. Following your link to the
html file leads to the JavaScript hell. :-) But I managed to download

Hello,
after struggeling with the positioning of layout panels without a real
solution (thread layout problems with positioning or aligning
content) I found out that things are even worse: There are totally
different results with different browsers:
- Linux + Firefox 3.6.3
- Windows + Firefox
Not sure how many times this has been stated, but if you use the
Layout panels as it seems you are, you must use standards mode by
adding !DOCTYPE HTML to the top of your html file. Else your
results are gonna be very problematic.

I think your best bet is to use the onResize and just calculate it. CSS
doesn't support centring vertically and I don't think GWT has any magic
bullet either.

Hi Ian,
does this mean that I have to do all the layout in absolute
coordinates manually? I thought this would GWT do for me.
In addition, the layout under IE 7 is totally broken. What is the

predictable results?

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but layout panels are more
for using the whole of an area of the screen - header, footer, menu on the
left, all the rest used for page display, that kind of thing rather than
allowing you to float things at various places on the screen.
For that, it

Yep, a typo
It sets the top to half way down the screen (top:50%) then moves it back up
with the negative margin by half the height of the panel. The effect being
that it is centred vertically.

I think you might need to use 'position:absolute' and set left and
margin-left the same way. It's a long time since I've used it.

Thanks, but it doesn't work, at least in one of the three
