Apache Wicket

Igor Vaynberg has an Apache Wicket Cookbook over at packtpub.com

A bit price-y for an epub in that genre.

Wicket has some virtues: it was not near impossible to convert to non-HTML/non-XML web content markup (unlike Scala Lift which is, well, ahem.)

Okay Lift: they have no excuse for the XML-lockstep as they have something like Traits available in the Scala language.  Type of output should be orthogonal to HTTP forwarding, redirecting and the rest.  But Lift has a project leader first, and a framework second.  Scala itself has more promise.

Jetty Lift Scala Tutorial for Windows XP

First install Jetty as a web server.
Open a cmd session in that Jetty directory (for this I use Microsoft PowerToys "Open Command Window" tool.)
In that cmd session, execute

java -cp . -jar start.jar

Open an IE browser and enter the address http://localhost:8080
When the web page comes up, click the Jetty test link
Go to the cmd window and enter CTRL-c to stop jetty

Now install Lift if you have not already done so.
Copy the Lift JAR file to jetty\lib
Copy the Lift Examples WAR file to jetty\webapps
restart jetty
refresh the localhost web page with the F5 key
This time click the Lift Examples link
