WOW... Thanks Igor and the rest of you for all the responses. I was pretty burnt last night when I finally discovered that probably several of the the myriad of approaches I went through to simply center a date picker worked but because Firefox was caching my first failed attempt I wasn't seeing them. I will probably just use the SHIFT-F5 so that I can go back to Firefox, which I definitely prefer as a browser. I also need to make use of the Firebug I installed a while back but forgot about.
You all are awesome and Wicket ROCKS! I wrote and released the "first" webapp I have ever developed, which includes a three table nested relationship to a forth selected items panel that keeps itself up-to-date by the minute. It uses the very slick inmethod grids and color coded with optional colorblind settings. The selected item panel has alternate choices for each check item selected with corresponding canned text to make describing a problem easier, validates inputs for consistency, and updates tables appearance when user updates an item. All this in under 4 months all due to Wicket and this user forum!
