WickeXt becomes WiQuery !
It's about one year that we are working on WickeXt. We have now two new teamates, the members of the jQuery4Wicket project that are joining us to make this project better.
The WiQuery project is the new name of WickeXt, and will be the 1.0 release of our project.
Get more information at: WiQuery, we're currently working on the 1.0-alpha version.
This google code will be closed when WiQuery will be released.
WickeXt integrates jQuery, jQuery UI and Wicket.
How to use WickeXt wihout using inheritance
Our quickstart tutorial explains how to use WickeXt with inheritance. But sometimes (in facts, most of the time), you don't want to use inheritance. You can just directly use WickeXt listeners, see this forum entry: http://n2.nabble.com/MyTreeViewPlugin-example-td1604959.html

WickeXt 0.6 is released ! The following features are now available:
- jQuery & Wicket core integration: all JavaScript code generated with WickeXt is non intrusive and loaded with the DOM. To simplify the web developer's life, this JavaScript code is able to work both in Ajax / Classic request mode.
- jQuery UI integration: all jQuery UI components are attached to a component (a WebMarkupContainer most of the time) in a non intrusive way. Now, you will be able to develop rich applications build on semantic XHTML markup and in a non intrusive programmation paradigm.
- jQuery UI theming: all jQuery UI components are skinned. With one line of code, changing your application skin becomes easy !

What is WickeXt ?
WickeXt aims to integrate the JavaScript frameworks jQuery and jQuery UI with Wicket, a Java framework providing a real way to create web applications with an OO approach.
WickeXt provides documented and tested unobtrusive JavaScript components, events, effects and helpers to easily build jQuery JavaScript statements.
Why WickeXt ?
- WickeXt provides a bunch of unobtrusive rich components such as datagrids, modal windows ...
- Most of WickeXt components are based on jQuery & jQuery UI JavaScript widgets, so there's only one core library to use.
- All WickeXt components manage their own dependencies to other JavaScript resources, so there's no need to import any JavaScript manually
- WickeXt architecture is open, write your own WickeXt plugins !
