Re: Wicket widget for deployment to third party site
Hi, What are the requirements for this widgets ? Recently another user asked for the same functionality and we realized that there are several limitations, the most important one - CORS. Please create a mini application that shows the requirements and we can try to finish it together. You can put it in GitHUb/BitBucket/... or send the archive directly to me.

Re: Wicket widget for deployment to third party site
The requirements are pretty simple, the widget will contain a form field or two that will be submitted back to a server via AJAX and present results back to the user on the site hosting the widget. Think of the ubiquitous Twitter or Facebook share widgets as existing similar examples to the functionality I need. Yes, CORS is an issue, but there seems to be a workaround that jQuery and other libraries use called JSONP. This HOWTO documents the jQuery way of doing it: http://alexmarandon.com/articles/web_widget_jquery/ I'm trying to figure out if wicket can simplify this for me, if not I'll probably just follow that example and push JSON or HTML to a jQuery widget from a ResourceReference or plain servlet. I'm not sure where I would begin in creating a mini-app unless you can point me at existing wicket functionality that would at least get me close. I've found ComponentRenderingRequestHandler which might be helpful in combination with a jquery based widget, but I'm not sure how I'd handle the wicket javascript includes that would be needed to support the component. Seems like it would get messy and fragile quickly. That's when I thought of wicket's existing AJAX component rendering (and re-rendering) capability which seems to handle that stuff already if I could tie into it (but maybe that's not possible without CORS and absolute URL support in wicket). -Mike On Dec 12, 2012, at 12:35 AM, Martin Grigorov mgrigo...@apache.org wrote: Hi, What are the requirements for this widgets ?

Re: Wicket Widget
Reminds me of a problem I had playing with jQuery Mobile. jqM plays with hash links and with Wicket 1.4.17, it does not work properly. I had to disable all Ajax links jQuery Mobile handles. How to avoid that? *Bruno Borges* www.brunoborges.com.br +55 21 76727099 On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 11:50 AM, LePirlouit lepirlo...@hotmail.com wrote: I have the same question : Is there a way to force wicket to generate absolute urls for the page being rendered? for javascript, onclick events and A urls -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/Wicket-Widget-tp1867919p3535951.html Sent from the Users forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
Re: Wicket Widget
Hi, you are working with html. seems like a resonable approach from our end of things. I agree. Well, I've postprocessed the output through a couple of regexps because the task was too simple to be done by xslt or dom machinery. But now I've hit another problem: links are generated relative to current page, which is not desired when finally embedding the gadget in its host. Is there a way to force wicket to generate absolute urls for the page being rendered? I mean for ajax events, js and css references, image srcs... everywhere. Thanks again. Best regards -Carlos i would say just run it through xslt to transform it to whatever you need. -igor On Tue, Jul 8, 2008 at 8:53 AM, Carlos Pita [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I'm looking for a fine and dandy (or just fine) way to create widgets for igoogle, facebook and others.

Re: Wicket Widget
wicket doesnt care about the markup type in general, it works on xml. however, header contributions are special because they are html-specific so it is assumed that if you use header contributions you are working with html. seems like a resonable approach from our end of things. i would say just run it through xslt to transform it to whatever you need. -igor On Tue, Jul 8, 2008 at 8:53 AM, Carlos Pita [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I'm looking for a fine and dandy (or just fine) way to create widgets for igoogle, facebook and others.
