I want to create a list of radio buttons [I have that working] and an
ajax event to fire whenever a radio button is clicked [I have this
working]. If the radio button matches the one I am interested in then I
want to display additional information that must be filled in. A radio
button selection is required.
I cannot get the additional information to display when I add the
component back to the target. I think it is because the additional
information is originally set to not visible so the output markup id is
not written out. How would I go about doing this? It seems pretty
standard. Do I need to use panels and swap the appropriate panel [1 -
empty panel, 2 - panel with additional info] into the target when
needed? That seems like a lot of code to do something fairly simple.
My code is below.
Thanks.

=====================
HTML:
<tr>
<td><wicket:message key="userType">Type of
User:</wicket:message></td>
<td>
<span wicket:id="accountType">
<input type="radio" />option 1
</span>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><span wicket:id="typeBox">The additional
information</span></td>
</tr>
Java Code:
// Account Type sub box
final WebMarkupContainer typeBox = new
WebMarkupContainer("typeBox");
typeBox.setVisible(false);
typeBox.setOutputMarkupId(true);
add(typeBox);
// Account Type Select
List accountTypes = accountTypeDao.findAll();
ChoiceRenderer accountTypeChoiceRenderer = new
ChoiceRenderer("name", "code");
RadioChoice accountTypeRadio = new
RadioChoice("accountType", accountTypes, accountTypeChoiceRenderer);
//accountTypeRadio.setRequired(true); // THIS
SHOULD REALLY BE REQUIRED
// add the on click to the radio button
accountTypeRadio.add(new
AjaxFormChoiceComponentUpdatingBehavior () {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Override
protected void onUpdate(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
RadioChoice choice = (RadioChoice) getComponent();
choice.updateModel();
if (((AccountType)
choice.getModelObject()).getCode().equalsIgnoreCase("REP")) {
typeBox.setVisible(true);
} else {
typeBox.setVisible(false);
}
target.addComponent(typeBox);
}
});
