[Chameleon] my widgets don't widge

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Sara,

With red box you mean the box with the red outline ofcourse, and not the 
complete map widget turning red like it does in Opera (this is a known 
issue).

Sorry for the confusion in the first line.

My guess is that the problem will be in the constructor of your sample 
application.

Best regards,
Bart
