Logging popup

[Hans Friederichs <ha...@planet.nl>]

Hello you all,

I'm quite new to wicket, but I've made a rather complex application using it.
It's a web-application that gives users the opportunity to start and view deployment processes.
Each proces is represented on the main page by a row in a List(Model), and when a row represents a busy process, there's a button to show the logoutput as it grows.
This is what I want to do: when a "Show log-button" is clicked, a popup window appears that shows the loglines and the progression, i.e. it autoscrolls when new lines come from the underlying proces that is executed on the server. 
Each process has a unique ID, and that's in fact all I have to pass to the Popup Window, because I can create a Model there that provides for the loglines.
I don't want a BookMarkablePageLink, that's idiot. In another post I read something like "use a plain Link and a Page with a constructor to pass your object", but I can't figure that out. Or should I use a ModalWindow?
Please help!

Hans

add(new Link<String>("link", new

    setResponsePage(new LoggingDetailPage(processID));
