Chris , Thanks a lot for the suggestion that we should not attempt to remove the style attribute for IE8 . I will keep the suggestion in mind. I didn't get the first part of your reply.
>I know the blank page phenomenon only from the following >constellation: >Quirks mode + RootLayoutPanel + IE What do you mean by , Quirks mode ? I am using RootPanel. I have a Jsp page( which is the first page to render) which has <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" " http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> added in the beginning. This jsp has a div , say , <body> <div id="pageContainer"> </div> >From GWT Entry point , I add the widget as , RootPanel.get("pageContainer").add(component); What is missing here ?
