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

1) i used an integer model-object in my example, but as you said, the component 
would need a converter.
2) yes, it is the javascript

i tried to implement it as a behavior that expects the bound component to 
implement ITextFormatProvider to get the input mask,
but i haven't found a way to "inject" a converter into the component form 
inside the behavior. maybe it was just too late ;)

update:
william, these problems are probably easier to solve if there is a dedicated 
component (eg. MaskedTextField).
as i said above, i tried the more "lightweight" approach to use the mask also 
for currently existing TextField subclasses (eg. DateTextField in 
wicket-datetime). in this case, you don't always have the luxury to say that 
the modelobject should be a string, since you can't alter the components 
internals from outside.
maybe i'm just overlooking something and overcomplicating it, so i can be 
totally wrong.

> Allow developers to designate a keystroke input pattern for the input text 
> component. The pattern  would be used on the client to control valid 
> keystrokes for the current cursor position within the input text field in 
> relation to the specified pattern.
> For example, a pattern could be designated as "(999)-9999" causing only 
> number values in each position where a "9" appears and using the "(", ")", 
> and "-" as masking characters. When the cursor position reached one of these 
> mask characters the cursor position would advance to the next "9" position. 
> The resulting mask would appear as "(___)___-____" within the input text 
> value.
