    Interesting…I wonder if it plays nice with jquery…

  2. Thanks for the post!

    Jay, yes, it plays nice with jQuery

    • Does this work with Jquery??? . I am working with something at the moment and I dont understand how it can. GWT is Java based, and outputs html, but I dont know how I can use it with Jquery. All I want to do is add a lightbox effect to links. An on click event, maybe with jquery live. Any help greatly appreciated.
