I'm trying to accomplish the same thing and think that wicket should provide such an API. all of the "issues" mentioned are well known issues and other web frameworks still provide an API and just acknowledge the limitations.
This is pretty important for me as I can't necessarily "hardcode" the url when the application runs in several different environments (production vs development for example). please vote for this JIRA issue and hopefully we can get some kind of API added. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-609 On Nov 23, 2007 7:03 PM, Oliver Lieven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Sebastiaan, > > thanks for your answer.
