I understood how can I switch from actions to bookmarkable pages, but I cannot get how could I work with user generated pages. I would like to leave the user all the freedom he needs, that is, ask him to follow my CMS conventions, but let him to design freely his pages. So there will not be a process of building page with components using some pre-made layout. The user will instead draw _his_ MyWorld.html, putting wicket components provided by the CMS.
But I cannot get how load ino Wicket the MyWorld.html, because there will not be a MyWorld.java... Probably my need could be a java class which interprets MyWorld.html and then render it. It's possible to do this? Could you suggest me some different approach to do this? The only thing I would not change is the way the user creates his pages: no constraints about the layout Thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Is-Wicket-suitable-for-my-CMS--tf4536847.html#a13177007 Sent from the Wicket - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
