Howto use .xhtml instead of .html for template file extension
I follow this:
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WICKET/Use+a+different+extension+for+template+files
added this to MyPage:
@Override
public String getMarkupType() {
return "xhtml";
}
and it doesn't work. Firefox wants to download the file instead of showing
the page.

IE7 cannot even download the file.
What am I doing wrong?

Re: Howto use .xhtml instead of .html for template file extension
Posted by UPBrandon <bc...@up.com>.
Out of curiosity, since pages in a Wicket application aren't accessed as
directly as something like a JSP might be, what reasoning is there for using
an XHTML file extension instead of HTML?

The mime type Wicket returns to the browser is text/<THE MARKUP TYPE>. In
your case it's text/xhtml which is not correct. Instead, one should use
application/xhtml+xml or text/html. The problem is that IE doesn't support
XHTML at all, so you have to use text/html and let all browsers treat the
response as html, not xhtml.
Wicket could be enhanced to differentiate between the template file
extension and the mime type.
For your case, try below as a workaround (or simply name your files
as *.html):
public class MyPage extends WebPage {
public String getMarkupType() {
return "xhtml";
}
protected void configureResponse() {
super.configureResponse();
getResponse().setContentType("text/html");
}
}
