You are correct that HTML doesn't allow two elements with the same markup id.
However, if you don't assign it an ID, the browser will automagically generate one, hidden for all. So you can have as many <a href>'s without a specific markup id as you wish. The Wicket identifier is different, as it is scoped: a Wicket identifier has to be unique within its scope level. So: <span wicketid="id1"> <span wicket:id="id1"> <span wicket:id="id1"></span> </span> </span> are perfectly legal. The following is not legal: <span wicket:id="id1"> <span wicket:id="id2"></span> <span wicket:id="id2"></span> <--- violates the unique id in scope level </span> As for generating the same component twice, you'll have to create two markup spots and add two instances of the component to your page.
