Form pages maintain style guidelines for user-input controls in forms.
Form Input
Every form input field has an associated descriptive label and an entry field.
Form Text
Form-field input is typically shown to users for confirmation.
One- and Two-Column Forms
You can set up forms so users enter data either in a single column of fields, or in a series of fields in two columns.
Form Sections
On a form with multiple sets of entry values, you can group entry fields for visual efficiency, or to link related data items. A form may comprise multiple sections, each of which includes its own header to describe the data type.
Form Buttons
Place form buttons that trigger actions either below the last entry field at the end of the form, or if there are multiple forms for each section, below the form entry fields in the section.
Form Field Validation
Form fields may have a series of validation steps that are enforced by Wicket validation behavior. Wicket attempts to validate, then uses the standard feedback panel on the page to report errors.
Tab Index
The sequence of focus in a form between input fields is typically the logical order in which the input fields are referenced in the page. If a form is complex and contains two column layouts, the logical tab index may not apply.
