Maybe we should change that section. But it is all valid namespaced XHMTL (which I guess JSF is as well). The main reason for having <wicket:...> tags is that we felt it was appropriate to mark regions, and in the case of <wicket:message> things that don't have a direct user-added Java counter part. We felt that if we would use wicket:xx attribute for everything (which we considered two years ago), it would be much harder to read the templates. Stripping of the wicket tags is done when in deployment mode, or you can do getMarkupSettings().setStripWicketTags(true); Eelco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
