Hi Chris, I have found it!!! I now know what is happening, but I have not actual a solution. But I also think this should be interesting for you GWT developers!
First of all, I found that the computer that compiled the "bad" version (with the bad layout), had GWT version 2.0.4, while the computer with the "good" version had GWT version 2.0.3. I did not realize this, because both eclipse installations had the "newest" GWT plugin. But the eclipse instances themselves were different (3.5 and 3.6). However, I upgraded the "good" computer to the newest versions of eclipse and GWT (2.0.4), and the result is that it's now a "bad" one too. This means: There is a layout problem, which was not present in GWT 2.0.3, but is present in GWT 2.0.4! Well, I also found out the reason for the problem: In short: IE7 processes "padding-left" and "padding-right" like "margin.-left" and "margin-right". In detail: I use a HorizointalPanel as a TitleBar (or StatusBar) and I want to place some text at the left end and at the right end of the bar. There should be some space between the text and the left/right end of the panel, so I used "padding-left:15px" or "padding-right: 15px" in the CSS for the bar. This works correctly in all browsers, but in IE7 it works like "margin-right", i. e. the whole TitleBar/StatusBar does not cover the whole width, as shown in the screenshot I provided. So, I know what is happening there, but I have no solution. Setting the padding to 0px makes the bars ok, but the text is not placed fine. I hope, this information is useful for you GWT developers and that someone finds out, why this came with GWT 2.0.4. And I also hope that you could point me to a solution for my problem...
