I have already asked such a question here but haven't got a reply which could work out. It is really important for me to resolve the problem. So, I try to develop an app using ExtGWT 2.3.0 / GWT 2.5.1 but faced the problem that widgets (both GWT and GXT) are not visible in browsers. I've been trying to solve this issue more than week but unfortunatelly I've failed. The stuff I have alredy tried:
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'/>
);clean install
;Maybe I left out smth but the list of actions is pretty much big. By the way I logged actions and there were no any errors or exeptions thrown. If I declare border settings for the widgets in .css their borders become visible that testifies that widgets are on page. So, if anyone has experienced such a problem or just could suggest something please let me know. Frankly it is very important for me. Please take a look at screenshots of the folder structure / setting of the project. Thank you in advance.

public class ProjectEntryPoint implements EntryPoint {
@Override
public void onModuleLoad() {

BorderLayoutData northData = new BorderLayoutData(Style.LayoutRegion.NORTH, 20);
northData.setSplit(false);
northData.setCollapsible(false);

centerData.setCollapsible(false);

headerHTML.setHTML("<h1>RSS Reader</h1>");
viewport.add(mainPanel, centerData);

It looks like a problem with missing styles - please double check that gxt-all.css
is available from where you reference it in your host page. Use your browser's developer tools to see if it's not throwing a 404
.
It seems that the missing resources are mentioned in Step 1 in the setup.txt
file that is bundled with GXT 2.3:
Create a Google Web Application Project project within Eclipse.
Copy the contents of the /resources folder in the download to a {foldername} location within your war folder. Substitute {foldername} with the name of the folder you've created for resources within your war folder.
Add the following stylesheet to your host page.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{foldername}/css/gxt-all.css" />
If you are using Charts, add the following script to your host page.
Add the following entry to you projects module xml file.
<inherits name='com.extjs.gxt.ui.GXT'/>
Eclipse Setup (should be similar for other development environments). These instructions assume you have a existing project and launch configuration.
