If you're running Wicket 1.2 (final) or before, you had to register shared resources in advance, using an initializer. If you use the current svn version - which if Martijn makes it will hopefully released later today or within the next few days -, that is fixed in the sense that you don't have to pre-register resources anymore. Btw, the easiest way of adding header references now - at least it's my preferred way - is to use HeaderContributors. I wrote a little bit about it here: http://chillenious.wordpress.com/2006/05/03/wicket-header-contributions-with-behaviors/ but the javadoc should hopefully be enough too. Btw, I wouldn't say this is a 'simple' problem. Wicket is about the only project that has such header contribution support for reusable components. Many other frameworks either have very rudimentary support, or not at all, requiring you to do your includes in the page (thus breaking the whole idea of having encapsulated components). If there are other issues you are struggling with, please post them here (after searching whether other people had a similar post first of course), or visit ##wicket on freenode. > BTW, I am posting this from Nable since my mail was refused by the list > server because I have no posmaster address in my domain.
