Question

I am working to recreate (conceptually) a prototype I’ve written in Cappuccino in GWT/GXT. Cappuccino made it trivial to display an external webpage as part of the application by using a WebView.

However, I cannot find any way to do this with GWT/GXT. There is a HtmlContainer widget, but this seems to be intended for something else. Any suggestions on how to do this?

You can set the url of a ContentPanel

e.g.

ContentPanel panel = new ContentPanel();
panel.setUrl("http://www.url.com/page");
panel.setHeaderVisible(false);
panel.setBorders(false);
panel.setBodyBorder(false);

You can also do this for the GXT Window class too.
