Hi Josh, thanks for your feedback!
I already saw this Wiki-page yesterday. Well, the point is, that I want to include the markup *in* the markup (i.e. output it in some panel inside of a script-tag so that JavaScript is able to get the markup). So *while* you are rendering, you want to know the schema Wicket is rendering on to include it in some places before outputting. I saw that Velocity integration is possible with Wicket and as far as I saw there are no problems or drawbacks with it - can you confirm that?
