I don't want to start advertising my stuff here, especially
considering that it is for Struts and for JSP. But in its current form
it does not really matter is it a complete page, or an element on a
page. If you look at this example:
http://www.superinterface.com/strutsdialog/logincontrol.html
You would see a login control in the left top cell, "Sign In". This is
not a wizard, but it is a multi-state component. I have a similar
example with wizard too, where you can sign up for a new account right
there if you do not have one. It is different internally, but
considering its integration with the application, the login control
behaves the same.
If you try the above sample, you would see that after you log in, you
are on the same page, and the "Log In" cell is now "User Info" cell,
and servers in the right column are $50 cheaper (this is just an
example). Both standalone login component and embedded component have
exactly the same code, they different only in where they redirect to.
This pattern would not work with Wicket, because it has solid Page to
load. On the other hand, this is something to think about, considering
future Ajax version for Wicket. Because in my case the same component
can work in Ajax mode too, responding with its own rendering, or in
current two-phase mode, redirecting to the main page.
Um, I still put some advertising in this email :) But I hope it was valuable.
So, my first reaction is to use panels, because this way wizard can be
embedded. I guess that I want to use borders... The language in
javadocs and in wiki is a little heavy, almost like mine :) so it is
hard to get through. But I will be there. I hope I will have something
this weekend.

One thing I'd like to know Michael, would your wizard be a page centric
(that's what it is now, right?) or would you consider panels too? The
example that I started (and will abandon in case you provide the wizard)
was centered around the idea that you can build a wizard that renders on
a panel (using replaces for steps), so that you could easily embed your
wizard in any page you like.
What do you think about that?
