Sharing a model
I'm wondering: can 2 pages share a model? Or would this cause
serialization problems?
Background: I'm trying to set up a wizard-like series of pages, and it
would make some sense for the pages to share the same model, with each
page filling in a piece of it.
(Yes, I know about the Wizard in wicket extensions, but a) seems like
quite possibly overkill for my needs (I don't need all the buttons and
such) and b) it seems to have one major flaw from what I can tell: if
you're on, say, step 2 of the wizard, and you hit the browser's "back"
button, it doesn't take you to step 1, but rather the previous page
before step 1.)
TIA,
DR

Hmmm ... OK. I'll check that out. Thanks much!

Oh, sorry, I misread that. Yes, *by default* the wizard is not
versioned. That is because I think it is better to force users to use
the provided 'previous' (or whatever you want to call it) button. You
simply have more control over how the wizard works that way. But if
you want to turn versioning on again, you can simply override
isVersioned in your custom wizard and let it return true.

Nothing wrong with rolling your own components. Though...

you can provide your own button bar by overriding newButtonBar and

that's not true. Why do you think that? The wizard works mainly with
panel replacement. And in 1.3 you have the choice between a (mostly)
static model or completely dynamic model (or of course rolling your
own).
