Igor, Regarding the stated problem:
As we know ,the formcomponent's getValue method returns value from the model for the component when rendering if raw input is equal to no raw input constant. So basically the problem is that component's model should not be updated until the user submits the form containing the zip field here. So looks like holding on to the raw input until the form is actually submitted should do the trick. Do you think its a good idea to hold on to the raw input by not calling clearInput in ajaxformcomponentupdatingbehavior. It may be cleared in process() call of form if valid. The only problem seems to be distinguishing incorrect input from correct input. May be in this case, it will be upto user to render any error label or feedback in that case. I understand this may go against fundamental way wicket works.. i.e to pull only from models if data is correct. But the scenario described above means that user doesnt want to update any transient data (- as user may keep changing zip field many times for example) , in models - so therefore pick up from component instead of model when rendering EXCEPT after submit when rendering the same page again. -swaroop On 10/23/07, Igor Vaynberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > dont know if you need that, just add javascript to the ajax target to > set the values on the fields.. > > -igor > > > On 10/23/07, Matej Knopp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I think what you could try (though it would be a nasty hack :) ) is to > > set rawInput property on FormComponent.
