Hm, it seems like i can get the behaviour I expect by overiding the inner
form button's onSubmit method and setting setDefaultFormProcessing(false)
on it as in this code.
public class Test extends WebPage {
public Test() {
MandatoryProductsForm outer = new
MandatoryProductsForm("outerForm");
NewPhoneForm inner = new NewPhoneForm("innerForm");
Button innerButton = new Button("innerButton") {
public void onSubmit() {
((NewPhoneForm)getForm()).onSubmit();
}
};
innerButton.setDefaultFormProcessing(false);
inner.add(innerButton);
outer.add(new Button("outerButton"));
outer.add(inner);
add(outer);
}
class MandatoryProductsForm extends Form {
MandatoryProductsForm(String s) {
super(s);
}
protected void onSubmit() {
System.err.println("Submit outer form");
}
}
class NewPhoneForm extends Form {
NewPhoneForm(String s) {
super(s);
}
protected void onSubmit() {
System.err.println("Submit inner form");
}
}
}
and this html
<html>
<body>
TEST
<form wicket:id="outerForm">
<form wicket:id="innerForm">
<input type="submit" wicket:id="innerButton" value="INNER"
/>
</form>
<input type="submit" wicket:id="outerButton" value="OUTER" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Is this the way it's supposed to be done ?. My understanding was that this
should happen automatically, and i suppose i will have to do my own
validation on the inner form now (haven't tested that part).
