Notice that the GA code bootstraps from the user's server. You'll probably want something similar, in that you provide a bootstrap function that loads from your customer's site. That function then loads your GWT code. If the load fails, it fails on your customer's site, not your site. You can take action since your customer's page has loaded, but with an exception (it hasn't loaded your GWT code). There may be other, unexplored complications to this solution. > Any ideas guys? > > Eggsy > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
