actually I meant in the widget, but you seem to have fixed it :)

I think you found this problem already

the GET method actually seems to break cwc2, I think I know why.  It 
seems that the service, version and request parameters are not being 
propogated to the next page.  For the moment, you can work around this 
by adding

<input type="hidden" name="service" value="VCG">
<input type="hidden" name="version" value="0.1.0">
<input type="hidden" name="request" value="GetApplication">

no problem :)  Can you send me your template (or give me the URL to it?)
