It’s always something simple – Dang ‘#’ delimiter…
I’m still pretty new to Google Web Toolkit- I’ve been “gwitting” it up for about 2 months now, so there are far more experienced GWT guys out there. If my answer doesn’t help – check one of their blogs or the GWT Issues List…
So – here’s what my issue was: I chose to use the history token as a string containing values which I would parse to determine page state. I chose the ‘##’ as my delimiting token thinking that this was a fairly safe choice.
Turns out that isn’t the case. If you check out the issues list for GWT you’ll find this little guy . As it turns out, Internet Explorer doesn’t play nice with using ‘#’ within your history token. Good to know!
The workaround did it for me – changed up the ‘##’ token with ‘&&” and all was go.
