you can use component.getChildren().clear(); and Execution.createComponents(...); to achieve this.

Please forget Page Based programming model, The programming paradigm of ZK is more like Swing & Mozilla XUL than JSP or JSF.

If you really like a configuration file to manage the URL, you can use ZK Macro Component + Language Addon to do it.
Macro Component is a way to wrap your ZUL page as a Composite in Swing, with the definition(Lang-Addon) in zk.xml, you can use it in your zul file just like a real component.

And I've seen some developer even use Spring Framework to configure his own Layout structure.
A ZK's component always need to implement default constructor, that's a huge benefit for you to do anything.

Hi TOtte an iantsai,
May I ask how to you achieve your url ($serverurl/$applicationname/Pages/$somefolder/$somezul.zul) without using richlet??
I trying to make my web page to understand simple URL like
$serverurl/$applicationname/Home
or
$serverurl/$applicationname/Catalog

to more complex URL like
$serverurl/$applicationname/Catalog/ForMen/T-Shirts/BlackAndWhiteTee
but I don't know how. What I use now is Richlet and my pages URL have to be like
$serverurl/$applicationname/RichletName/HomeOrWhatever

I want to get rid of the RichletName in the URL, if that is possible. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance!!

There's a lot of way to do it, you can simply create a Servlet as a dispatcher which will handle the easy URL you mentioned by forwarding.

this is the easiest way to do it.
