A simple solution to set the value for applet parameters in Wicket is by using the WebMarkupContainer. Suppose we have the following applet element in our HTML page:
1 2 3 4 | <applet code="com.mrhaki.wicket.applet.ApplicationApplet" width="100%" height="100%"> <param name="param1" wicket:id="appletParam1"/> <param name="param2" wicket:id="appletParam2"/></applet> |
In the Page class we can use the following code to set the value for the parameters param1 and param2:
1 2 3 4 5 6 | final SimpleAttributeModifer valueParam1 = new SimpleAttributeModifier("value", "Value for param1");final WebMarkupContainer appletParam1 = new WebMarkupContainer("appletParam1");appletParam1.add(valueParam1);add(appletParam1);add(new WebMarkupContainer("appletParam2"). add(new SimpleAttributeModifier("value", "Value for param2")); |
We see a very expressive way of composing the value for the param element param1. And a very short statement to set the value for the param2 element.
The HTML after Wicket processing is now:
1 2 3 4 | <applet code="com.mrhaki.wicket.applet.ApplicationApplet" width="100%" height="100%"> <param name="param1" value="Value for param1"/> <param name="param2" value="Value for param2"/></applet> |
Another solution is described in the following post. A more generic Wicket component is also possible.
