I did this with an IVisitor, that traverses all form components and adds an AbstractBehavior to each required inputfield. This Behavior writes an "<span>*</span>" right after the component has been painted.
Watch this pdf for an example: http://code.google.com/p/londonwicket/downloads/list and than " LondonWicket-FormsWithFlair.pdf " As "setComponentBorder" is deprecated in newer wicket versions i left the componentBorder part out, no need for it. For making it work with ajax, i had also to implement AbstractBehavior.isTemporary() and to add the forms parent as a target oft he calling button Jerome -----Original Message----- From: Martin U [mailto:ufer.mar...@googlemail.com] Sent: Thursday, February 04, 2010 1:14 PM To: users@wicket.apache.org Subject: Easier using of FormComponentFeedbackIndicator for many fields?! Hi Folks, i've to implement many form-pages with a lot of (more than 30) input fields, and each of them should be validated at least of "required" or not. but the request is to show the validation-errors behind the depeding component.. so iam using FormComponentFeedbackIndicator now and everything works fine with: searchfield = new RequiredTextField<String>("seachfield", new PropertyModel<String>(SearchPanel.this, "searchString")); add(searchfield); indicator = new FormComponentFeedbackIndicator("searchfield_indicator"); indicator.setIndicatorFor(searchfield); indicator.setOutputMarkupId(true); indicator.setOutputMarkupPlaceholderTag(true); add(indicator); this is an ajax-form so i have to add this to onSubmit too for each validating field. protected void onError(AjaxRequestTarget target, Form<?> form) { target.addComponent(indicator); } Is there any Hint to easier this implementation? What i imagine is something like: searchfield = new *RequiredValidatedTextField*<String>("seachfield", new PropertyModel<String>(SearchPanel.this, "searchString")); and inside this child class iam building a indicator but how could i add the "indicator"-Span dynamically to the markup and how could i do the target.addComponent than? Thanks for any hints. - Martin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
