             Summary: Deprecate BoxBorder
                 Key: WICKET-4966
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4966
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: wicket
    Affects Versions: 6.2.0
            Reporter: Peter Parson
            Priority: Minor


Just stubled upon BoxBorder, which is "A very simple border component that 
draws a thin black line around its children." and creates markup like this:

<table width = "0%" border = "0" cellspacing = "0" cellpadding = "1" bgcolor = 
"black">
            <tr>
                <td width = "100%" valign = "top">
                    <table width = "100%" border = "0" cellspacing = "0" 
cellpadding = "4" bgcolor = "white">
                        <tr>
                            <td width = "100%">
                                <wicket:body/>
                            </td>
                        </tr>
                    </table>
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>

I know, no one is forced to use it... but honestly: no developer should be lead 
to the assumption that creating a border like this is a good idea.

I suggest to deprecate it, or otherwise move it to wicket-extension or 
somewhere else.
