Wicket rewrite the SRC attribute of the image as relative to your webapp context unless you declare that image as a wicket component, give it a wicket:id and then use a ContextImage.
Thus you would turn a <img src="../images/image.jpg"> to a <img wicket:id="img" src="../images/image.jpg">. If you do so, then you can still preserve the "wrong" src relative path of "../images/image.jpg" so that your web developers can see the images while editing the static HTML resources and when you run the web-app Wicket will take care of fixing that URL for you no matter at what point you mount the page. If you have too many such images and refactoring might take you too long, then consider write your own Custom Wicket Tag Resolver for an attribute of the img HTML tag and override what the framework does for you (do call super) by changing the src attribute in a similar way ContextImage would do it for you. For example see this article: http://sanityresort.blogspot.com/2011/08/creating-custom-wicket-tag-resolver.html Or see how other such resolvers or AttributeModifer are used by Wicket itself, you can start with the AutoComponentResolver. ~ Good look to you!

Yes, that's what I observed and described below. And that behavior is not appropriate for my use case. So, how can I stop Wicket to "make the url relative to the web root no matter what mount path I use for the page"? I want to *change* that: my designer delivers HTML where the images are *not* relative to the web root, but to one directory below. In our HTML files are URLs like "../images/image.img" and I don't want to change these URLs. Alternatively, how can I tell Wicket that the web root has a different prefix just for rewriting these image URLs?
