I trying to produce a DockLayoutPanel which looks like the example in the Developer’s Guide (http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideUiPanels.html)

DockLayoutPanel p = new DockLayoutPanel(Unit.EM);
p.addNorth(new HTML("header"), 2);
p.addSouth(new HTML("footer"), 2);
p.addWest(new HTML("navigation"), 10);
p.add(new HTML("some content"));
// I added this:
RootLayoutPanel.get().add(p);

All this code was placed inside the onModuleLoad
substituting the sample Eclipse startup code when you create a new
GWT app. I’m forcing the standards mode with in the html page. The output looked nothing like the example. I see the text “header,footer,etc” in the proper places but the page is all white, the styling is lost (the white boxes with the blue background).

Am I missing a css or something else really simple that makes it look like the example?

Thanks!

    If you deleted everything in the onModuleLoad of the startup project in Eclipse, then added your own content, it’s normal if your page is all white.

    The thing is, DockLayoutPanel is only a layout panel so it has no basic style, even with the “standard Google style” enabled.

    The blue background with the white boxes were actually the result of the standard style applied to what was originally in the onModuleLoad.
