Class Ext.form.ComboBox+click event

Hi,

I need to fatch the items of ComboBox(Class Ext.form.ComboBox) when ever user clicks on combobox. There is no click event in combobox(in docs).

How can I apply click event to combo box so that when user clicks on combobox the event is fired.

Thanks.
with regards

how about focus?

or take your pick from the list of ComboBox events

Focus event will not do the job for me when I populate my combo on focus event because

On selecting an item ajax request is submitted to server and based on response dom is updated by appending new elements.
And somehow focus event of combo is triggered automatically(unwanted). I thought by using click event I could avoid this problem.

then use select.

your description isn't clear, but it appears you want some action performed only when an item in the ComboBox's list is selected.

look here where i have a sample with linked combos:

Thanks for replying

What I wanted was to load data model used for combo when someone clicks combobox.
(ie populating combo when select is clicked). Click event is what I was looking for which was not there.
Searching for other options

Thanks

i see... you should be able to use the beforequery event then.
note: the beforequery event fires only when the ComboBox's trigger is clicked. you'll also need to use the same handler which populates the store on the ComboBox's focus event as well (i.e. when the ComboBox's text input field is clicked).

You can have a listener as below:-

var applicationCombo = new Ext.form.ComboBox({
store: ['Application 1', 'Application 2', 'Application 3'],
listeners: {
'select': function(combo, record, index){ /* Your code */ }
}
});
