Hi,

@Thomas: yeah, this is useful when opening the page from a link, but there I 
don't have a problem.

@Martin, this works perfectly, thank you :)
Just wondering: wouldn't it be better to override renderPage()?
Because then you can just set the responsePage there and return immediately. 

@Override
public void renderPage() {
        if (hasBeenRendered()) {
                setResponsePage(getPageClass(), getPageParameters());
        }
        else {
                super.renderPage();
        }
}

This is not possible in the onBeforeRender() method, because wicket forces me 
to call super.onBeforeRender().
Which is probably not what I want, because then first the old page gets 
rendered and only after that it builds a new page (at least it seems to be that 
this is happening).
Any insights?

Best,
Anna

I think this is what she needs:

MyPage.java:

@Override
public void onBeforeRender() {
  if (hasBeenRendered()) {
    setResponsePage(getPageClass(), getPageParameters());
  }
}
