Ext.util.ObservableExt.form.Basic
Provides input field management, validation, submission, and form loading services for the collection +of Field instances within a Ext.container.Container. It is recommended +that you use a Ext.form.Panel as the form container, as that has logic to automatically +hook up an instance of Ext.form.Basic (plus other conveniences related to field configuration.)
+ +The Basic class delegates the handling of form loads and submits to instances of Ext.form.action.Action. +See the various Action implementations for specific details of each one's functionality, as well as the +documentation for doAction which details the configuration options that can be specified in +each action call.
+ +The default submit Action is Ext.form.action.Submit, which uses an Ajax request to submit the +form's values to a configured URL. To enable normal browser submission of an Ext form, use the +standardSubmit config option.
+ +Note: File uploads are not performed using normal 'Ajax' techniques; see the description for +hasUpload for details.
+ +Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
+ title: 'Basic Form',
+ renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
+ bodyPadding: 5,
+ width: 350,
+
+ // Any configuration items here will be automatically passed along to
+ // the Ext.form.Basic instance when it gets created.
+
+ // The form will submit an AJAX request to this URL when submitted
+ url: 'save-form.php',
+
+ items: [{
+ fieldLabel: 'Field',
+ name: 'theField'
+ }],
+
+ buttons: [{
+ text: 'Submit',
+ handler: function() {
+ // The getForm() method returns the Ext.form.Basic instance:
+ var form = this.up('form').getForm();
+ if (form.isValid()) {
+ // Submit the Ajax request and handle the response
+ form.submit({
+ success: function(form, action) {
+ Ext.Msg.alert('Success', action.result.msg);
+ },
+ failure: function(form, action) {
+ Ext.Msg.alert('Failed', action.result.msg);
+ }
+ });
+ }
+ }
+ }]
+});
+(Optional) If specified, load and submit actions will be handled +with Ext.form.action.DirectLoad and Ext.form.action.DirectLoad. +Methods which have been imported by Ext.direct.Manager can be specified here to load and submit +forms. +Such as the following:
+ +api: {
+ load: App.ss.MyProfile.load,
+ submit: App.ss.MyProfile.submit
+}
+Load actions can use paramOrder or paramsAsHash
+to customize how the load method is invoked.
+Submit actions will always use a standard form submit. The formHandler configuration must
+be set on the associated server-side method which has been imported by Ext.direct.Manager.
Parameters to pass with all requests. e.g. baseParams: {id: '123', foo: 'bar'}.
+ + +Parameters are encoded as standard HTTP parameters using Ext.Object.toQueryString.
+ +An Ext.data.DataReader (e.g. Ext.data.reader.Xml) to be used to +read field error messages returned from 'submit' actions. This is optional +as there is built-in support for processing JSON responses.
+ + +The Records which provide messages for the invalid Fields must use the +Field name (or id) as the Record ID, and must contain a field called 'msg' +which contains the error message.
+ + +The errorReader does not have to be a full-blown implementation of a +Reader. It simply needs to implement a read(xhr) function +which returns an Array of Records in an object with the following +structure:
+ + +{
+ records: recordArray
+}
+(optional)
A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this +object during initialization. This should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the +addListener example for attaching multiple handlers at once.
+ +DOM events from ExtJs Components
+ + +While some ExtJs Component classes export selected DOM events (e.g. "click", "mouseover" etc), this + + +
is usually only done when extra value can be added. For example the DataView's
+click event passing the node clicked on. To access DOM
+events directly from a child element of a Component, we need to specify the element option to
+identify the Component property to add a DOM listener to:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
+ width: 400,
+ height: 200,
+ dockedItems: [{
+ xtype: 'toolbar'
+ }],
+ listeners: {
+ click: {
+ element: 'el', //bind to the underlying el property on the panel
+ fn: function(){ console.log('click el'); }
+ },
+ dblclick: {
+ element: 'body', //bind to the underlying body property on the panel
+ fn: function(){ console.log('dblclick body'); }
+ }
+ }
+});
+The request method to use (GET or POST) for form actions if one isn't supplied in the action options.
+The request method to use (GET or POST) for form actions if one isn't supplied in the action options.
+A list of params to be executed server side.
+Defaults to undefined. Only used for the api
+load configuration.
Specify the params in the order in which they must be executed on the +server-side as either (1) an Array of String values, or (2) a String of params +delimited by either whitespace, comma, or pipe. For example, +any of the following would be acceptable:
+ + +paramOrder: ['param1','param2','param3']
+paramOrder: 'param1 param2 param3'
+paramOrder: 'param1,param2,param3'
+paramOrder: 'param1|param2|param'
+ Only used for the api
+load configuration. If true, parameters will be sent as a
+single hash collection of named arguments (defaults to false). Providing a
+paramOrder nullifies this configuration.
An Ext.data.DataReader (e.g. Ext.data.reader.Xml) to be used to read +data when executing 'load' actions. This is optional as there is built-in +support for processing JSON responses.
+If set to true, a standard HTML form submit is used instead
+of a XHR (Ajax) style form submission. Defaults to false. All of
+the field values, plus any additional params configured via baseParams
+and/or the options to submit, will be included in the
+values submitted in the form.
Timeout for form actions in seconds (default is 30 seconds).
+Timeout for form actions in seconds (default is 30 seconds).
+By default wait messages are displayed with Ext.MessageBox.wait. You can target a specific +element by passing it or its id or mask the form itself by passing in true. Defaults to undefined.

this reference) in which the handler function is executed.
+If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Components which +will exist only after the Component is rendered. For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body: +
new Ext.panel.Panel({
+ title: 'The title',
+ listeners: {
+ click: this.handlePanelClick,
+ element: 'body'
+ }
+});
+When added in this way, the options available are the options applicable to Ext.core.Element.addListener
+ + +
+Combining Options
+Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
+
+A delayed, one-time listener.
+
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, {
+single: true,
+delay: 100
+});
+Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call
+The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties
+which specify multiple events. For example:
+
myGridPanel.on({
+ cellClick: this.onCellClick,
+ mouseover: this.onMouseOver,
+ mouseout: this.onMouseOut,
+ scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
+});

this
+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.
This is commonly used by Ext.Components to bubble events to owner Containers. See Ext.Component.getBubbleTarget. The default +implementation in Ext.Component returns the Component's immediate owner. But if a known target is required, this can be overridden to +access the required target more quickly.
+ + +Example:
+ + +Ext.override(Ext.form.field.Base, {
+// Add functionality to Field's initComponent to enable the change event to bubble
+initComponent : Ext.Function.createSequence(Ext.form.field.Base.prototype.initComponent, function() {
+ this.enableBubble('change');
+}),
+
+// We know that we want Field's events to bubble directly to the FormPanel.
+getBubbleTarget : function() {
+ if (!this.formPanel) {
+ this.formPanel = this.findParentByType('form');
+ }
+ return this.formPanel;
+}
+});
+
+var myForm = new Ext.formPanel({
+title: 'User Details',
+items: [{
+ ...
+}],
+listeners: {
+ change: function() {
+ // Title goes red if form has been modified.
+ myForm.header.setStyle('color', 'red');
+ }
+}
+});
+The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.
+Find a specific Ext.form.field.Field in this form by id or name.
+Find a specific Ext.form.field.Field in this form by id or name.
+The value to search for (specify either a id or +name or hiddenName).
+Ext.form.field.Field The first matching field, or null if none was found.
+Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name).
+ + +An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component.getBubbleTarget) +by calling enableBubble.
+ +The name of the event to fire.
+Variable number of parameters are passed to handlers.
+returns false if any of the handlers return false otherwise it returns true.
+Retrieves the fields in the form as a set of key/value pairs, using their +getModelData() method to collect the values. +If multiple fields return values under the same name those values will be combined into an Array. +This is similar to getValues except that this method collects type-specific data values +(e.g. Date objects for date fields) while getValues returns only String values for submission.
+(optional) If true, only fields that are dirty will be included in the result. +Defaults to false.
+Return all the Ext.form.field.Field components in the owner container.
+Return all the Ext.form.field.Field components in the owner container.

+(optional) If true, will return the key/value collection as a single +URL-encoded param string. Defaults to false.
+(optional) If true, only fields that are dirty will be included in the result. +Defaults to false.
+(optional) If true, the configured emptyText of empty fields will be used. +Defaults to false.
+Returns true if the form contains any invalid fields. No fields will be marked as invalid +as a result of calling this; to trigger marking of fields use isValid instead.
+Checks to see if this object has any listeners for a specified event
+Checks to see if this object has any listeners for a specified event
+The name of the event to check for
+True if the event is being listened for, else false
+Returns true if the form contains a file upload field. This is used to determine the +method for submitting the form: File uploads are not performed using normal 'Ajax' techniques, +that is they are not performed using XMLHttpRequests. Instead a hidden <form> +element containing all the fields is created temporarily and submitted with its +target set to refer +to a dynamically generated, hidden <iframe> which is inserted into the document +but removed after the return data has been gathered.
+ + +The server response is parsed by the browser to create the document for the IFRAME. If the +server is using JSON to send the return object, then the +Content-Type header +must be set to "text/html" in order to tell the browser to insert the text unchanged into the document body.
+ + +Characters which are significant to an HTML parser must be sent as HTML entities, so encode +"<" as "<", "&" as "&" etc.
+ + +The response text is retrieved from the document, and a fake XMLHttpRequest object +is created containing a responseText property in order to conform to the +requirements of event handlers and callbacks.
+ + +Be aware that file upload packets are sent with the content type multipart/form +and some server technologies (notably JEE) may require some custom processing in order to +retrieve parameter names and parameter values from the packet content.
+ +Boolean
+Returns true if any fields in this form have changed from their original values.
+ + +Note that if this BasicForm was configured with trackResetOnLoad then the +Fields' original values are updated when the values are loaded by setValues +or loadRecord.
+ +Boolean
+Returns true if client-side validation on the form is successful. Any invalid fields will be +marked as invalid. If you only want to determine overall form validity without marking anything, +use hasInvalidField instead.
