Passing hidden parameters / bookmarkable links
I am developing a system that has "groups" and want to make them
accesible via user-friendly urls such as
www.mysite.com/group/GROUPNAME
On a web page, I have a list of groups which are all links to their
group pages, such as:
www.mysite.com/group/groupA
www.mysite.com/group/groupB
...
This is implemented as such:
PageParameters parameters = new PageParameters();
parameters.put("groupName", aGroup.getName());
add(new BookmarkablePageLink("groupName", GroupHomePage.class, parameters));
and also mounting a BookmarkablePage in my Wicket Application
mountBookmarkablePage("/groups", GroupHomePage.class);
and in my GroupHomePage class, I have:
public GroupHomePage (final PageParameters parameters) {
String groupName = parameters.getString("groupName");
int groupId = GroupDAO.getGroupId(groupName);
}
So as you can see, I basically retrieve the groupName and go fetch the
groupId from the database.
I already know the groupId from the page I was coming from so there is
no need to go back to the databse.
How can I pass this groupId parameter to GroupHomePage without
compromising the user-friendly links such as
www.mysite.com/group/groupName?
Thanks.

You can't - it's either in the URL and accessible or not. If you only want
to pass the group name, then the group name needs to be unique so that you
can look it up. Otherwise, you have to pass the ID and the name. At that
point, the name is just for SEO or prettyness - whatever - because the ID is
what you'll have to use.
You can also do something like foo.com/group/234-groupName
