Do you keep three sets of templates and decide at runtime based on the user-agent information which template to render against? I'm currently in a project where this device independence is achieved by a 'post-processor' which picks up the rendered markup and re-renders it for each device category. Just curious which approach was chosen for wallmart and your experiences with it. mf > > We added a few components to Wicket, mostly because in the retail arena > being stateless is very important.
