Hello *,

I'm new to wicket. I use NetBeans 7.2/Linux.

I'm trying to follow some examples, but NB doesn't validate wicket HTML files. 
Now I could live without validating them. However the NetBeans editor 
highlights syntax errors and that's a desirable feature, but it becomes an 
annoyance if any "wicket" string is seen as an error.

For example, this file I copied from wicket examples:

<html xmlns:wicket="http://wicket.apache.org";>
<head>
    <title>Wicket Examples - Authentication</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"/>
</head>
<body>
    <span wicket:id="mainNavigation"/>
    <wicket:child />
</body>
</html>

scores 3 errors in Netbeans plus some warnings.

By the way, the w3c validator [1], fed with the same HTML files, reports the 
same errors of the Netbeans editor and then some. Both autodetect wicket HTML 
files as HTML 5.

If I force them as XHTML 1.0 Transitional, by adding

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>

at the top and

xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";

in the html tag, w3c validator finds "only" two errors and NetBeans takes it 
showing only a couple of warnings. This could be an acceptable workaround for 
me, but I wonder if I'm doing something basically wrong.

Is there a way to write valid HTML in wicket?
