>> existing Wicket Components to make your own code simpler.
>>
>> A straightforward Cookbook with highly focused practical recipes to make
>> your web application development easier with the Wicket web framework
>>
>> ## What you will learn from this book ##
>>
>> * Leverage Wicket to implement a wide variety of both simple and
>> advanced use cases in a narrative that gets straight to the point
>> * Make forms work in the crazy world of the Web by learning the ways of
>> Wicket's form processing
>> * Simplify localizing your Wicket applications
>> * Take the boring out of your forms by discovering how to improve the
>> user experience while simplifying your code at the same time
>> * Leverage the built-in Table component to make displaying tabular data
>> a snap
>> * Think Wicket's Borders are not very useful? Learn to use them in
>> unexpected places to simplify things
>> * See how to integrate with Flash components and create interactive
>> charts at the same time
>> * Web 1.0 too boring? Learn how to tame Wicket's AJAX support and bring
>> your application into Web 2.0
>> * Simplify your security code by learning various security techniques
>> * An application cannot be built with Wicket alone; see how to make it
>> play nice with other frameworks
>>
>> ## Approach ##

>> code because, after all, it is for coders.
>>
>> ## Who this book is written for ##
>>
>> This book is for current users of the Apache Wicket framework; it is not
>> an introduction to Wicket that will bore you with tons of theory.
>> You are expected to have built or maintained a simple Wicket application
>> in the past and to be looking to learn new and better ways of using
>> Wicket. If you are ready to take your Wicket skills to the next level
>> this book is for you.
