Hmm, is the problem that the html content doesn't cover the whole
hulahop area, or that the hulahop widget doesn't fill the whole
screen?

If the former, it's a matter of html. If the latter, hulahop is a
normal gtk widget and you should use the gtk api to make what you
want. Hulahop should behave the same as a gtk.Button in this regard,
