Module wicketstuff-inmethod-grid implements a sophisticated grid-component with class com. inmethod.grid.datagrid.DataGrid. 

Just like pageable repeaters (seen in [paragraph 13.4|guide:repeaters_4]) DataGrid provides data pagination and uses interface IDataProvider as data source. In addition the component is completely ajaxified:

DataGrid supports also editable cells and row selection:

The following snippet illustrate how to use DataGrid and is taken from wiki page "https://github.com/wicketstuff/core/wiki/InMethodGrid":https://github.com/wicketstuff/core/wiki/InMethodGrid : 

*HTML:*

{code:html}
...
  <div wicket:id="grid">Grid</div>
... 
{code}

*Java code:*

{code}
final List<Person> personList = //load a list of Persons
final ListDataProvider listDataProvider = new ListDataProvider(personList);
//define grid's columns
List<IGridColumn> cols = (List) Arrays.asList(
	     new PropertyColumn(new Model("First Name"), "firstName"),
	     new PropertyColumn(new Model("Last Name"), "lastName"));

DataGrid grid = new DefaultDataGrid("grid", new DataProviderAdapter(listDataProvider), cols);
add(grid);
{code}

In the code above we have used convenience class DefaultDataGrid that is a subclass of DataGrid and it already comes with a navigation toolbar.
