Re: Inserting Widgets and simple text into panel

Thank you for the reply Alan, but the reason for trying this approach is because widgets have much more that simple html elements (for example click handlers for click events) if i set the inner html or text of a panel (or a HTML widget) the new elements will be rendered ok, but the listeners/handlers (both native and custom) will be lost

Hello, I want create a panel with a flow layout (for ex. FlowPanel)
which contains 2 widgets and a large text at the end (not a<div>  or
another element)
I tried to add the widgets and then set the panel's element text:

flowPanel.add(w1)
flowPanel.add(w2)
flowPanel.getElement.setInnerText(largeText)

A FlowPanel is a container for widgets  - not a container for widgets and some text at  end!.

Its a bit of a simplification, but basically gwt widgets render by doing exactly what you've done in the 3rd line. The best you could do is to retrieve the inner text and append your text to it - but really, that's a hack.

My preference would be to put the text  in an appropriate widget, such as an HTML Widget and add that instead of manipulating the text directly, or if you want the text to be unstyled, then use a Label widget.

but the last line overrides all other widgets.

How can i do this (but without using UIBinder for now.) ?
