Hi. I am using a AjaxFallbackDefaultDataTable to display some search
results and this is good for typical multiple-columns layout.
I want results also to be displayed in a "grid" layout, where a whole
single result stays in a single cell (an image and a text label
below).

I can't figure out how to do with a DataTable but I can do this with a
GridView but I want the ajaxified version... So I have explored the
various options wicket offers to display data and I have  some
problems.
Before starting, I have noticed an error the wiki here:
http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/tables-and-grids.html
maybe this informations are just out of date?

Back to the problem: DataTable wraps a DataGridView, so my question is:
there is a way to obtain my desired layout with a DataGridView and so
from a DataTable? Or, have I to use GridView instead?

I have tried to build a solution following the second way, making a
sort of DataTable that wraps a GridView, the code is taken from
original DataTable. This was simple, both GridView and DataGridView
extends BaseDataView and there are just some different methods
(setRows instead of setRowsPerPage...)
Problems arise when I try to make the ajaxified version due to the
fact that a lot of components used by AjaxFallbackDefaultDataTable
make direct use of DataTable... This difficoulties to me seem related
to the fact that inheritance is often used where probably would have
given more power to user that wanted to extends funcionality and
behavior of existing classes. Maybe this is just an impression due to
the fact I am new to wicket...

Any advice is welcome, thanks.
