How to Dynamically add Ajax Links to a listview

Question

So if I had a listview with each item in the listview having a different Link based on logic that executes in the onClick of AjaxLink how would I dynamically add the wicket:id's for each of the links?

for example:

item.addOrReplace(new ListView<String> ("listViewID" listViewIDs){
  AjaxLink openLinktoPage = new AjaxLink("dynamicAjaxLinkId"){
    @Override public void onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target){
      String url = generateUrlBasedOnDynamicLinkImplementationNotImportant(listViewIDs.getModelObject());
      useUrlToOpenWindowImplementationNotImportant(url);
    }
  }
}

with Html Marked up like so...

<tr wicket:id="listViewIDs">
   <td>
       <a href="not important">Some Link Text Here</a>
   </td>
</tr>

Looks like I am going to have to generate the html dynamically in the code and append it to the html markup. Not sure how to do that though.

No need to generate HTML. This is pretty standard use case for repeaters in Wicket.

item.addOrReplace(new ListView<String> ("listView", listViewIDs) {
  @Override protected void populateItem(final ListItem<String> item) {
     AjaxLink openLinktoPage = new AjaxLink("link"){
       @Override public void onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target){
        // do something that uses item.getModelObject()
        // the name "openLinkToPage" makes me think you may need BookmarkablePageLink instead
       }
     }
     item.add(openLinktoPage);
  }
}

And the markup:

<tr wicket:id="listView">
    <td>
        <a wicket:id="link">Some Link Text Here</a>
    </td>
</tr>
