Can we call html ids from Wicket Java class

Is there a way to call ids that are created in html page without specifically giving wicket:id in the component. If so, how can I do that?

What I am trying to accomplish is to get access of the component to assign a default value from CMS. I could assign the default value using JS, however I need that value to be populated to Java so that I could use that in my class to update my business logic depending on the defaulted value.

As I understand it, Wicket is component oriented which means that single component (piece of HTML code) can't see all the HTML. And my guess is that at some late stage, you want to look at the whole page HTML and do something with a DOM node with a specific ID.

I'm not sure what the correct solution should be. One way is to put the value into the user's session, so it's available for each component and your business logic.
