Here is the quick and dirty solution. Is there enough interest to build a
full blown grid component?
final int cols=7;
final int rowsPerPage=5;
add(new PageableDataView("grid", new ContactDataProvider(),
cols*rowsPerPage) {
protected void populateItem(final DataItem item)
{
Contact
contact=(Contact)item.getModelObject();
item.add(new Label("cell",
contact.getFirstName()+" "+contact.getLastName()));
}
protected void renderItem(Component item)
{
DataItem di=(DataItem)item;
if (di.getIndex()%cols==0)
getResponse().write("<tr>");
super.renderItem(item);
if (di.getIndex()+1==getItemCount())
{
if (getItemCount()%cols!=0)
{
int
needed=cols*((getItemCount()/cols)+1)-getItemCount();
getResponse().write("<td colspan=\""+needed+"\"> </td>");
}
}
if ((di.getIndex()+1)%cols==0)
getResponse().write("</tr>");
}
});

<table cellspacing="0" class="dataview" border="1">
<span wicket:id="grid">
<td><span wicket:id="cell">[cell]</span></td>
</span>
</table>
