Thank you so much for the response, that was very helpful.
So, I've got half of the equation figured out but now, I have the issue of how
to generate a URL that call a component that allows for a straight HTML
response.
Here is the issue now:
Component someMadeUpAjaxComponent = ... {
onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
// return the component output
}
}
1) Is there a component (the someMadeUpAjaxComponent) that I can get a URL for
which will trigger the onClick method
2) I need to attach the URL for the component to a link - not add the component
directly - is this possible?
3) Given an AjaxRequestTarget, is there any way I can write out the HTML
response (as opposed to adding components for rendering)?
Because, the result will look something like this:
<a href="{the AJAX URL that will respond with the component HTML content}">View
Details</a>
I will then attach a tooltip to this link which will know that it can take the
href attribute of the link to obtain the tooltip content.
Thank you very much for any help you could offer.

search this list for how to generate emails with wicket. there are a bunch
of posts of that sort. that will teach you how to render a component to a
string. this could be used to return the contents.
