FlexTable with Uibinder or alternatives

Question

What's the best way to use flextable in corperation with uiBinder, I already know that I have to provide it and initiate it befor initWidget

@UiField(provided = true) FlexTable contentTable;

But I simply need a table with as an input matrix like:

pseudo:

 Label."Name: " TextBox() 
 Label."Password: " TextBox() 

Know is it a good idea to even consider FlexTable or is there a better Alternativ? Thanks for any help.

I'll pass on the fact that using a table for a form layout is not your best option nor a good practice.

You can just use an HTMLPanel with UiBinder, and do everything in HTML like you would with a "normal" page, with some additional GWT tags for widgets :

<g:HTMLPanel>
   <div class="formInput">
      <g:Label text="First Name - W3C style : ">
      <g:TextBox ui:field="firstNameTextBox">
   </div>


   <table>
     <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>Last name - table style :</td>
            <td><g:TextBox ui:field="lastNameTextBox" /></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <!-- Other form fields -->
        </tr>
     </tbody>
   </table>
</g:HTMLPanel>
