we are not working within the context of swing here are we? so to say
something doesnt make sense within the context doesnt make any sense.
anyways, the border is called border because it wraps other components.
eg:
class myborder extends border { myborder() { add(new label("a","a"));
add(new label("b","b")); }}
<wicket:border><div wicket:id="a"/><wicket:body/><div
wicket:id="b"/></wicket:border>
now somewhere else
myborder b=new myborder("mb");
b.add(new label("c","c"));
<div wicket:id="mb"><div wicket:id="c"/></div>
the output from this is:
<div><div>a</div><div>c</div><div>b</div></div>
notice that border is AROUND the component that is inside it, thats
why its called border
