Thx for the reply. 

You are right, it is not a must to use PageParameters but as this is my
first Wicket project, I have started to work with simple things.

In the meantime, I have had a look to the formInput example where a
CompoundPropertyModel is used. I have adapted the Form to work with it.

My question is now :

When I call the first time my page, the url is : http://localhost/request.
Wicket receives this request and the constructor RequestPage(PageParameter
pageParameter) is called. Next, after filling my form in the page and
clicking on the onSubmit button, the request is submitted to the same page. 

How can I retrieve the values of the CompoundPropertyModel from my form in
this case ? Do I have to do something particular in the
setResponsePage(RequestPage.Class) to pass the compoundPropertyModel ? Do I
need to create two different constructors : one for PageParameters and the
other to handle CompoundPropertyModel ?

Regards,

Charles
