Fascinating.  I had never heard of DDA compliance before but a little  
Googling makes me realise that I should really take notice.   
Especially the part about sites like Priceline.com being successfully  
sued over their accessibility.

Regards your question: wicket does by default use some Javascript to  
detect new windows for its PageMap implementation.  But this is not  
essential user interface script and I can't see how it could stop a  
site being accessed correctly.  All other JavaScript and AJAX is  
completely optional.  You have complete control over the mark-up that  
is returned (unlike JSF) so you can use CSS and basic HTML if you  
want and be completely compliant.
