I think this maybe be a bug with GWT (but I'm not sure). I'm running my app under https/ssl, in IE (7 & 8) I get an "Operation Exception" (Network Error) if I set a previsouly created Image widget's url to an unsecured url (which causes IE to popup a dialog asking the user for permission).
The following code causes an exception to be thrown (using HTTPS/SSL self signed certs): public class TestingDeferImageLoad implements EntryPoint { public void onModuleLoad() { final Image image = new Image(); RootPanel.get().add(image); Timer deferImageLoad = new Timer() { @Override public void run() { try { image.setUrl("http://www.google.co.uk/logos/2011/ Albert_Szent_Gyorgyi-2011-hp.jpg"); } catch(Exception e) { Window.alert(e.getLocalizedMessage()); } } }; deferImageLoad.schedule(1000); } } Without SSL everything works fine. Obviously I can catch/handle the exception but should I have to? - It was a pain to track down. Note: I've mirrored the same code in vanilla Javascript without the Exception being thrown. Although it's a bit of an edge case, has anyone else come accross this problem? Should I file a bug??
