it is amazing how you can fully understand the wicket philosophy after
only one day using it :) anyways, what you are doing is not markup
manipulation, you are outputting a dynamic value attribute which is
quiet logical to do from code...

proper way to do this is to chain the models:
item.add(new label("title", new propertymodel(item.getmodel(), "title")))

this is simply item.add(new
WebMarkupContainer("comment").setOutputMarkupId(true));
wicket already has facilities for outputting unique markup ids

componentize this:
class javascriptshowlink extends webmarkupcontainer {
private final component target;
// constructor left to your imagination
protected void oncomponenttag(tag) {
tag.put("onclick",
"getelementbyid('"+target.getmarkupid();+"').style.display='';return
false;");
// there is nothing wrong with doing this, it is a dynamic string
generated via code
}
then just item.add(new javascriptshowlink("show", commentContainer);
