Bump I still have several questions that haven't been answered: - What is the meaning of redirect (in the context of RequestCycle)? - Why does wicket always do redirect for ajax requests? - Why does BookmarkablePageRequestTarget.getPage(RequestCycle) only call newPage if isRedirect is false? And why is it final? - When I respond to the ajax request, adding a stateful component (therefore making the page stateful), why is the page not stored in the session automatically? - Are there any problems with the hacks I used? Do they break anything? - Is there any better way to do what I am trying to do?
