If I understand your problem correctly, you could override the newLink() method of the AjaxTabbedPanel to return an AjaxSubmitLink instead. Something like the following:
tabPanel = new AjaxTabbedPanel("tabs", tabs){ @Override protected WebMarkupContainer newLink(String linkId, final int index) { return new AjaxSubmitLink(linkId, yourForm) { @Override protected void onSubmit(AjaxRequestTarget target, Form form) { setSelectedTab(index); if (target != null) { target.addComponent(tabPanel); } onAjaxUpdate(target); } @Override protected void onError(AjaxRequestTarget target, Form form){ AjaxUtils.error(form); } }; } }; Disclaimer: the code above is based on Wicket 1.2.6.
