A tag name or DomHelper spec used to create the Element which will -encapsulate this Component.

-

You do not normally need to specify this. For the base classes Ext.Component, Ext.BoxComponent, -and Ext.Container, this defaults to 'div'. The more complex Ext classes use a more complex -DOM structure created by their own onRender methods.

-

This is intended to allow the developer to create application-specific utility Components encapsulated by -different DOM elements. Example usage:

{
-    xtype: 'box',
-    autoEl: {
-        tag: 'img',
-        src: 'http://www.example.com/example.jpg'

True to use height:'auto', false to use fixed height (or allow it to be managed by its parent -Container's layout manager. Defaults to false.

-

Note: Although many components inherit this config option, not all will -function as expected with a height of 'auto'. Setting autoHeight:true means that the -browser will manage height based on the element's contents, and that Ext will not manage it at all.

-

If the browser is managing the height, be aware that resizes performed by the browser in response -to changes within the structure of the Component cannot be detected. Therefore changes to the height might -result in elements needing to be synchronized with the new height. Example:

var w = new Ext.Window({
-    title: 'Window',
-    width: 600,
-    autoHeight: true,
-    items: {
-        title: 'Collapse Me',

Note: Although many components inherit this config option, not all will -function as expected with a width of 'auto'. Setting autoWidth:true means that the -browser will manage width based on the element's contents, and that Ext will not manage it at all.

If the browser is managing the width, be aware that resizes performed by the browser in response -to changes within the structure of the Component cannot be detected. Therefore changes to the width might -result in elements needing to be synchronized with the new width. For example, where the target element is:

-A Panel rendered into that target element must listen for browser window resize in order to relay its -child items when the browser changes its width:
var myPanel = new Ext.Panel({

Enables events fired by this Observable to bubble up an owner hierarchy by calling -this.getBubbleTarget() if present. There is no implementation in the Observable base class.

    A validator offers a way to customize and reuse a validation specification. +If a field is configured with a validator +function, it will be passed the current field value. The validator +function is expected to return either: +

      +Depending on the configuration of allowBlank, a +blank field will cause validation to halt at this step and return +Boolean true or false accordingly. +

  • 3. Preconfigured Validation Types (VTypes) +
    +

    If none of the prior validation steps halts validation, a field +configured with a vtype will utilize the +corresponding VTypes validation function. +If invalid, either the field's vtypeText or +the VTypes vtype Text property will be used for the invalid message. +Keystrokes on the field will be filtered according to the VTypes +vtype Mask property.

            Validates a value according to the field's validation rules and marks the field as invalid -if the validation fails. Validation rules are processed in the following order:

            -
              -
            • 1. Field specific validator -
              -

              A validator offers a way to customize and reuse a validation specification. -If a field is configured with a validator -function, it will be passed the current field value. The validator -function is expected to return either: -

                -
              • Boolean true if the value is valid (validation continues).
                • -
              • a String to represent the invalid message if invalid (validation halts).
                • -
              -
              • -
            • 2. Basic Validation -
              -

              If the validator has not halted validation, -basic validation proceeds as follows:

              -
                -
              • allowBlank : (Invalid message = -emptyText)
                -Depending on the configuration of allowBlank, a -blank field will cause validation to halt at this step and return -Boolean true or false accordingly. -
                • -
              • minLength : (Invalid message = -minLengthText)
                -If the passed value does not satisfy the minLength -specified, validation halts. -
                • -
              • maxLength : (Invalid message = -maxLengthText)
                -If the passed value does not satisfy the maxLength -specified, validation halts. -
                • -
              -
              • -
            • 3. Preconfigured Validation Types (VTypes) -
              -

              If none of the prior validation steps halts validation, a field -configured with a vtype will utilize the -corresponding VTypes validation function. -If invalid, either the field's vtypeText or -the VTypes vtype Text property will be used for the invalid message. -Keystrokes on the field will be filtered according to the VTypes -vtype Mask property.

              -
              • -
            • 4. Field specific regex test -
              -

              If none of the prior validation steps halts validation, a field's -configured regex test will be processed. -The invalid message for this test is configured with -regexText.

              • Parameters:
              • value : Mixed
                The value to validate
              Returns:
              • Boolean
