Re: how to give static pages consistant look with wicket - partial repeat

Igor, 

This works great! I have a few of questions:
1) Why do you use <wicket:container wicket:id="content"> ? If i replace
wicket:container with span seems to work the same. Is there a place i can
read about the usage of all the wicket tags like wicket:container,
wicket:link etc... ?

2) With sitemesh i put info  like section and subsection in META tags of
each page.  Then the decorator template can access that info to display the
navigation correctly. What would be the best way to accomplish this in
wicket with static pages ? One way i see is to have file name contain
section and subsection info. Is there a better way ?

3) The code you provided works correctly if
MyBasePageWithDecoratingMarkup.html doesn't have a title tag. Then the
decorated page gets the title from the static page. However if
MyBasePageWithDecoratingMarkup.html has a default title 
 then the title from the static page is not displayed. Any suggestions ?

thanks

Vicky
