Why can't we just do this?
<table wicket:id="grid" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
<tr wicket:id="row">
<td wicket:id="column">cell</td>
</tr>
</table>
I mean, this way you don't need special renderers (you just put all
your stuff directly into the HTML file) and you can still do either old
HTML tables or CSS or whatever. We allow developers to attach three IDs
on the markup end (one for the grid, one for the row, one for the
column) and they can use any tags (i.e. table, tr, td, div, span, etc)
and put any markup before or after them.
Wouldn't this work?

There are plenty of components in wicket that write out html directly to the
response stream, sometimes it is the best and easiest solution.
In this case all we are interested in is generating a simple grid layout
that hosts cells. Is it easier to write your own renderer to customize your
css or whatever as opposed to having to write markup for two dataviews
everytime and making sure you get that exactly right.
With a renderer all you do is:
<table wicket:id="grid" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
[cell markup]
</table>
Anyways, if you don't like it I wont implement it until I need it :)

Looks bad :)
We should have external markup files (i.e. *.html)
instead of doing this the old servlet/JSP way of manually
writing out HTML.

Basically a table renderer would look something like this:
Class tablerenderer implements igridrenderer {
begin(...) {}
beginRow(GridView view) {
view.getResponse().write("<tr>");
}
beginCell(GridView view) {
view.getResponse().write("<td>");
}
...
}
Mmm this gives me an idea, we can have an excelrenderer or a
csvrenderer, etc.. Almost like an exporter.

Looks ok I think although I'm not too familiar with this whole
concept of a seperate renderer. I'd have to try it to see
what I think
:)

How about this idea:
We have a gridview extends dataview. A gridview takes a render
interface that it uses to render the grid (instead of body
markup), so
we can have a tablerenderer or cssrenderer or whatever, and the
interface would roughly look like this:
Interface IGridRenderer {
begin(GridView view);
beginRow(GridView view);
beginCell(GridView view);
endCell(GridView view);
endRow(GridView view);
end(GridView view);
}
Basically this is the same as my first post that inserted the html
directly but now its tucked away in a renderer. This way we
don't have
the unnceessary row-wise views and you can even use OIR
cleanly since
it is basically a dataview.
