I have recently come across Wicket. 
I think it is exactly what was missing in the java presentation layer space.
I look forward to getting proficient enough to start realising some project
ideas we have. Thanks for giving us such a good option.

I am using 1.2.6.
I have a page (PersonalDetails) with a form for the user to enter some
information - let's say his name and his date of birth (dob).
I use setResponsePage(PersonalDetailsPreview.class) in the form's onSubmit()
method to give the user a chance to preview his input before he submits it
to be persisted.
Probably naively, I have created both PersonalDetailsPreview.class &
PersonalDetailsPreview.html as simple copies of the respective
PersonalDetails files and made some minor changes to reflect the read-only
nature of the preview page. 
My questions are: 
What are the options in Wicket for making the data (name & dob) from the
PersonalDetails available to the  PersonalDetailsPreview? 
Did I need to make PersonalDetailsPreview.class &
PersonalDetailsPreview.html for such a scenario (ie carrying identical data
from one screen to the next)?

I have not been able to find any documentation about this (and also wicket
"page-navigation"). I tried to find some sample code on the example page but
the old page (1.25/6? examples) seems to be unavailable now and the 1.3
examples' "source code" link doesn't seem to bring up the java code (just
html & properties files) in the pop-up.

PS what I am trying to do may or may not be a nice feature for the user, but
the question is really about the technical possibilities/best-practices for
the solutions in Wicket in such cases (sharing data between pages), not
really about how good the user-experience is.
