Hi Martin, Thanks for your post, in the end I found this post on thewicketevangelist // Jeff Schwartz who doesn't post so much any more (I think he has switched from wicket to node js), which is a shame as his blog is really instructive:
http://thewicketevangelist.blogspot.com.es/2011/12/reusable-jquery-ui-autocomplete-wicket.html <http://thewicketevangelist.blogspot.com.es/2011/12/reusable-jquery-ui-autocomplete-wicket.html> Anyway what I did was add the widget as a AbstractAjaxBehavior and implement the renderHead(Component, IHeaderResonse) and onRequest() methods. For anyone interested the implementations where along the lines of: @Override public void renderHead(Component _component, IHeaderResponse _response) { super.renderHead(_component, response); renderHeaderJs(_response, JS_BOOTSTRAP); ... more rendering of other js files ... Map<String, String> variables = new HashMap<String, String>(); variables.put("jsCurrenciesArray", getJsCurrenciesArray()); ... more interpolated variables ... variables.put("callbackUrl", getCallbackUrl().toString()); TextTemplate packageTextTemplate = new PackageTextTemplate(MyJqueryWidgetBehavior.class, JS_INIT); packageTextTemplate.interpolate(variables); _response.renderOnDomReadyJavaScript(packageTextTemplate.asString()); } private void renderHeaderJs(IHeaderResponse _response, String _inPackageJsFile) { if (!_response.wasRendered(_inPackageJsFile)) { _response.renderJavaScriptReference(new PackageResourceReference(JqueryRealtyAdvertSideFilter.class, _inPackageJsFile)); _response.markRendered(_inPackageJsFile); } } @Override public void onRequest() { RequestCycle requestCycle = RequestCycle.get(); Request request = requestCycle.getRequest(); IRequestParameters irp = request.getRequestParameters(); // construct the filter to be run against the mw from the parameters in the ajax request... Filter filter = getFilterFromParameters(irp); // run the filter using the injected manager ( // check out getBehaviorInstantiationListeners().add(wicketGuiceInjector); in the Application class realtyAdvertManager.runFilter(filter); // create a model from the results of the filter ListModel realtyAdvertModel = new ListModel(filter.getBeans()); // use the model to create a results panel FilterResults newResults = new FilterResults("results", realtyAdvertModel); // replace the model in the component heirarchy Component oldResults = getComponent().get("results"); oldResults.replaceWith(newResults); // write it out to the request so that it blats over the original results panel requestCycle.scheduleRequestHandlerAfterCurrent(new ComponentRenderingRequestHandler(newResults)); } Anyway thanks to Jeff Schwartz for his original blog post. And thank you Martin for taking the time to post another solution.
