You're out of line with both your language and your position.

You may not agree with it, but there are many good business cases for supporting IE6.

If you aren't using flashblock, but using mediawrapper instead, the problem is exhibited there as well, perhaps because both plugins try to circumvent aspects of flash embedding to support their...

I just ran into this very issue myself and couldn't figure it out for the life of me. This post solved an issue I struggled with for almost half a day. This seriously needs to find its way into the...

Keep in mind that Ext.Direct is asynchronous. So, that means that in order to act upon the value being returned by the server, you'll have to specify a callback in your method call to the server. ...

Those object method names are beyond awkward. Why couldn't they have gone with something more, uh, predictable like JSON.toObject() and JSON.toString()?

I never said anything about flex or flash, did I? :p

Are you both so quick to forget about AIR? Additionally, I suppose neither of you have ever heard of an attempt in to the JS space by Adobe...

[by JeffHowden]

I'd have thrown Adobe's name in before I mentioned google or yahoo.

Switch to the non-minified version of ext-all and turn on break at all errors in firebug and it'll be a bit more obvious.

Flex, it's not his job to answer your questions. It's your job as the person wishing to license it to make sure you understand the license, not the job of the licensor to educate you on it. Get...

And what does the resulting JSON look like?

How does the resulting JSON compare to the JSON in the examples?

Just a note that if you have Firebug available, use console.log instead of alert().

No one here is going to write code for you. Take the static JSON you were working with and write your own server side code to generate JSON that has the same setup as the static examples.

Please...

What would you show if you collapsed the center?

If you like, you can have a two column layout by using east and center or west and center.

JSON vs XML speed is proportional, not linear. So, the larger the dataset you're returning, the faster JSON will be over XML.



It is also requires much less bandwidth than the XML necessary to...

What happens when you request that file directly via IIS?

[by JeffHowden]

Of course it matters. What you created is not an array, it's an object with properties. In order for the tree to be able to use the JSON you give it, it must be in the format it requires which is...

[by JeffHowden]

A word of caution though. This only works when the method is GET. Using POST won't work without some other manner of complication.

what you want is:


{countries: [{"id":"4","code":" AFG","country":"Afghanistan"},{"id":"5","code":" ALB","country":"Albania"}] }

This is object literal notation for a top level object named...

Any reason why you can't just set the text back to the oldText?

[by JeffHowden]

You're going to have to bring that up with the standards bodies and browser vendors. I don't see your suggestion happening anytime soon, if ever.

I call shenanigans...

Either that or you haven't been reading the tome that is the licensing threads.

What does it matter what it used to be if every newcomer to it will be encountering options of GPL or commercial from the current available version forward?



That's debateable and seems to only...

Oh geeeze. I shouldn't have even opened the door by thanking you for starting a non-ext-is-slow topic. /:)



If Ext doesn't provide what you need out of the box, it's built to give you the...

I clearly understand the difference. My point is that everyone's situation is unique and to flavor their experience and expectations by waving about your own smelly experience with it regarding...
