How do i layout components dynamically in panel? i.e, there is not markup
like a table to determine the position?
if i write myPanel.add(field1) and myPanel.add(field2) and i want the
fields to be laid out a) side by side b) one below the other, how do i do it
?
As was mentioned before, with repeaters. I am working on Gozer - an OSS
UI library - which is (the name already implies) heavily borrowing ideas
from XUL. With Gozer you define your UI model within an XML file. The
Wicket renderer takes this XML and builds an object tree consisting of
Wicket based panels. Some of these panels are boxes. Boxes can either be
of family xbox or vbox. Such boxes either repeat containing
child-components horizontally or vertically. From what I read about your
application, you will probably code something similar.
This link contains some info:

Talking about Swing there, but the concept is the same. The "form"
containing the "formfield" in the sample image somewhere in the center
of the page would be a xbox. Which means a simple vertical repeater
which renders every formfield below the other. A formfield would be a
simple panel in Wicket which inherits TextField from Wicket.
Cheers,
Adrian
