alright, so the label should either update itself or updates should be pushed to the client, right? did you have a look at how ProgressBar works? http://wicketstuff.org/confluence/display/STUFFWIKI/wicketstuff-progressbar
i haven't tried it myself, but AFAIK it uses the approach to updateitself. I did a lot of stuff however with pushing data from the server to the client using cometd, but that seems a bit overhead to me for your usecase. but if you're interested in cometd either take a look at wicketstuff-push and/or wicketstuff-dojo-1.1 hope that helps lizz wrote: > > But the problem is that the user shouldnt have to press any button to > update the labels... > > > Michael Sparer wrote: >> >> Sure, >> >> use a simple Label and an AjaxButton, set setOutputMarkupId = true on the >> label and add it in the onSubmit method to the ajaxrequesttarget >> (target.addComponent(label)). >> But I'd also recommend taking a look at the Progressbar (search the >> mailinglist) - that might suits you better >> >> lizz wrote: >>> >>> Hi, >>> I need to add end user information (progress information) after submit >>> button is pressed and before being redirected to a new page.
