one idea i have is that components themselves get to decide how they contribute CSS info.


for your RoundCornerBorder, you might simply /not/ contribute CSS info and instead generate it local to the component. the problem with that is that if you have a site with hundreds of these components, they'll all have inline per-instance css, which is inefficient. you ideally want to be able to have this all inline at the top of a page or even in a separate file if all the instances are going to have the same colors etc. right?

yeah, i was wondering about that...

i've written a bunch of a proof of concept for the stylesheet ideas i've been throwing around and i'm kindof stopped on this problem at the moment...

Authors should never depend on globally defined styles like for <p> etc. They should use classes, selectors and inline styles. Now, selectors can be a problem, as when you use the id attribute for wicket components, that id will generally be less usable for css. What authors can do - like I do a lot in the project I'm working on - is to use <span or <div tags for marking style, and within that the usual wicket tags.


    Agreed, but say for my RoundCornerBorder, how do I bind my CSS
so it is local only to my component?
