Hey Gerolf,
I used the following to do feedback as you suggested, but the red "*" is
always visible, rather than just after an error, even on rendering the
page before I do any submits.
Here is the code I have in my Form's constructor:
RequiredTextField itemid = new
RequiredTextField("itemid",Integer.class);
FormComponentFeedbackIndicator fd = new
FormComponentFeedbackIndicator("itemidFeedback");
fd.setIndicatorFor(itemid);
add(itemid);
add(fd);
And Here is the Code I have in the html file (inside the form):
<tr>
<td>ItemId:<span wicket:id="itemidFeedback"/></td>
<td><input type=text wicket:id="itemid"/></td>
</tr>
On further investigation, I sublassed FormComponentFeedbackIndicator and
overwrote the isVisible() method like this:
public boolean isVisible()
{
return
Session.get().getFeedbackMessages().hasMessage(getFeedbackMessageFilter(
));
}
With this change, the * shows up only when I would expect it to...
Do you have any idea what would cause the default behavior not to work
properly?
This is all setup in a QuickStart project, using Java 1.4
Thanks for any help.
-Clay

Subject: Re: Form Feedback
in your case (appending star to the label) i would do the following:
// html
<label wicket:id="inputLabel">[label]</label><span
wicket:id="inputIndicator">*</span><input type="text"
wicket:id="input"/>
// java
TextField input = new TextField("input", new Model(""));
FormComponentFeedbackIndicator inputIndicator = new
FormComponentFeedbackIndicator("inputIndicator");
inputIndicator.setIndicatorFor(input);
notice:
the "*" between the span tags is not used as the actual output but
rather
for a preview if you open the .html file in a browser
hth,
