public class Login extends Composite {

    public Login() {

        VerticalPanel verticalPanel = new VerticalPanel();
        initWidget(verticalPanel);
        verticalPanel.setSize("329px", "186px");

        Label lblNewLabel = new Label("Sign into your account");
        lblNewLabel.setStyleName("gwt-Login-SigninLabel");
        verticalPanel.add(lblNewLabel);

        FlexTable flexTable = new FlexTable();
        verticalPanel.add(flexTable);
        flexTable.setWidth("308px");

        Label lblNewLabel_1 = new Label("Username:");
        lblNewLabel_1.setStyleName("gwt-Label-Login");
        flexTable.setWidget(0, 0, lblNewLabel_1);
        lblNewLabel_1.setWidth("72px");

        final TextBox textboxUsername = new TextBox();
        textboxUsername.setStyleName("gwt-LoginTextBox");
        flexTable.setWidget(0, 1, textboxUsername);
        textboxUsername.setWidth("204px");

        Label lblNewLabel_2 = new Label("Password:");

        flexTable.getCellFormatter().setHorizontalAlignment(0, 0, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_LEFT);
        flexTable.getCellFormatter().setHorizontalAlignment(1, 0, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_LEFT);

        CheckBox chckbxRememberMeOn = new CheckBox("Remember me on this computer");
        chckbxRememberMeOn.setStyleName("gwt-Checkbox-Login");
        flexTable.setWidget(2, 1, chckbxRememberMeOn);

        Button btnSignIn = new Button("Sign In");
        btnSignIn.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
            public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
                Connection con = null;
                Statement st = null;
                ResultSet rs = null;

                try {
                    con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
                    st = con.createStatement();
                    rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT VERSION()");
Window.alert("Fixing to try it");
                    if (rs.next()) {
                        Window.alert(rs.getString(1));
                    }

                } catch (SQLException ex) {
                    Logger lgr = Logger.getLogger(Login.class.getName());
                    lgr.log(Level.SEVERE, ex.getMessage(), ex);

                } finally {
                    try {
                        if (rs != null) {
                            rs.close();
                        }
                        if (st != null) {
                            st.close();
                        }
                        if (con != null) {
                            con.close();
                        }

                    } catch (SQLException ex) {
                        Logger lgr = Logger.getLogger(Login.class.getName());
                        lgr.log(Level.WARNING, ex.getMessage(), ex);
                    }
                }





                if (textboxUsername.getText().length() == 0
                        || textBoxPassword.getText().length() == 0) {
                        Window.alert("Username or password is empty."); 
                    }
            }
        });

        btnSignIn.setStyleName("gwt-Login-SigninButton");
        flexTable.setWidget(3, 1, btnSignIn);

    }
