Ext.get contract broken

[mankz]

The contract of Ext.get is to 'get' an element from the DOM. Seems broken to me:



Ext.getBody().setHtml('<div id="foo">CRAP</div>');
console.log(Ext.get('foo').dom.innerHTML); >>"CRAP"

Ext.getBody().setHtml('<div id="foo">AWESOME</div>');

console.log(Ext.get('foo').dom.innerHTML) // >> "CRAP"


Cache is not busted as I overwrite some element. Docs say this should work.

http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/api/Ext-method-get


Uses simple caching to consistently return the same object. Automatically fixes if an object was recreated with the same id via AJAX or DOM.

This bug report is still open. Has not been worked on yet.

Bumpers, any update?

Coming up on 6 months for this, can we please just get it fixed? Still broken in 2.2. Ext.get just _has_ to work according to docs, imagine if in jQuery you could not trust


$('.foo')

I think that's kind of a critical one.
