Hi,

I'm using GWT 2.4. Is it possible to know what HTML will be rendered
for a given widget (http://www.ing.iac.es/gwt-linux-1.4.60/doc/javadoc/
com/google/gwt/user/client/ui/Widget.html) object? Thanks, - Dave

Maybe you'll want to be using the GWT 2.4 docs instead of the GWT 1.4 docs you seem to have.

http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/2.4/index.html

Anyway, from the Widget you can call widget.getElement() and from that element you can call element.getString(), which will get you the full html, including it's own tag.
