Re: Stick a widget on a just opened new blank page
Hi Mirco,
I'm trying to achieve something very similar. Would appreciate any
update on how it went for you.
Cheers,
Dogan

I'm sure you could change it to return the new window as an Element
and use DOM.* to manipulate it.
Let us know how you get on - this could be useful for creating print
pages without a server roundtrip.

Hi folks,

What I'd like to do would be some sort of Window.open(myWidget,
_blank,
width=650,height=700)
But this can't be done because the interface of the Window.open method
expects an URL and not a widget.
Is there any trick to get this working. I was thinking that maybe I could
call a native JS method and just pass the Widget as a DOM Element, but
considering I'm not at all a JS expert I would prefer not to waste time
on
something that is simply not possible :)
If there is someone out there with a good idea and has time to give me
some
direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Stick a widget on a just opened new blank page
I don't know if you really need to open a new window, but if not then you can easily use a PopupPanel or DialogBox. If you want new window then I think you need to pass url which should just display the widget you want based on the parameter passed in the url. For eg. http://yoursite/yourapp/#widgettoshow I am new to gwt, but I guess this should work, if you already have history management in you application. - Abdullah On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 4:09 PM, Mirco Dotta mirco.li...@gmail.com wrote: Hi folks, I'm wondering if there exist a way to stick a widget into a new page.

Re: Stick a widget on a just opened new blank page
Hi Abdullah, thanks for your opinion, really appreciate it!
Your suggestions are good but for what I'm doing I really need to open a new
page and I would like to avoid to have the History manager handling it...
mostly because I don't want the user to save the page and come back at a
later time.
This window I'm creating is meant to be transient. It's purpose is to have
inside a summary of an order that the user can print. As I have built the
order as a widget, I'd really love to stick that widget on this blank page
and that's it. This is why I was thinking that I may need to go through JS
and do it myself... but I'm not very clear on how to achieve it, and most
importantly, if it can even be achieved.
