I have a use for this right now in 1.2. Is someone already backporting this or should I take a stab at it and submit a patch.

Thanks,

Hi,

I've just committed what I consider to be an "usable AJAX header
contribution code".

It means that it can contribute certain elements from AJAX response to
header with proper handling of already contributed elements.

Supported elements are:
   - script references <script src="">   - inline scripts <script>...</script>
   - stylesheet references <link href="">   - inline stylesheets <style>...</style>

Actual contribution is done using _javascript_ by creating relevant DOM
representation of elements.

Tested with FF1.5, IE6, Opera 8.5 and 9, Konqueror.

The only thing user has to take care of to prevent duplicated
contribution of element, is to make sure that every *inline* element
that has been contributed using *renderHead()* has an unique id.
(see AbstractDefaultAjaxBehavior#onRenderHeadInitContribution for example).

I tried to touch as little API as possible and I think that it should be
possible to backport this to 1.2 without any API break.

Detecting whether a contribution has already been done:

The detection is done using _javascript_, but there are also some checks
on the server side (but they are not perfect, they are just supposed to
reduce bandwidth).

For script and link references, existing header elements are checked for
presence of element of same type with same src/href attribute.

For inline elements, document is checked for presence of element with
same id.

To make sure, that every inline element has proper ID,
HeadForceTagIdHandler markup filter has been added. Purpose of this
filter is to generate unique id for every inline script and style
element between <wicket:head>..</wicket:head> tags.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd appreciate if anyone could test this on some "real" components, to
see if there are any issues to be taken care of.

Btw. There is an issue with DatePicker from wicket-contrib. Init code of
datepickers is called on every render of datepicker, which causes
problems with ajax update (some weird recursion problem).
Next issue is that konqueror tries to call initialization code, before
the actual referenced _javascript_ is loaded.
I guess both of this issues could be solved by deferring datepicker
initialization.
