Comobox submitts additional field

**schmidetzki** · 2 Apr 2007 8:33 AM

I convert <selects>-s to Ext.comboboxes im my project.

Thince beta 1 I get an additional field with name "" submitted with the form.
There was one line added to the source in beta 1:

// prevent input submission
this.el.dom.name = '';

(Combo.js, Line 117)

At last in FF 2.0.0.3 this does NOT prevent submission!
As a result I have this empty-named field the server can't handle.

as a workaround you can try replacing that line with

Code:

this.el.dom.removeAttribute('name');

try it and let us know if it works.

Mystix, that is much better than my terrible solution!

awww shucks jack... u flatter me...

p.s. i'd like to suggest appending some sort of build number to the Ext download file so developers know they're getting a new SVN build. Otherwise, it's good old file-by-file winmerge for most of us

Yes, that works!

Yikes, WinMerge! You could always get SVN access and check out by tag and have it auto merge.

hi jack,

noticed in beta 2's ext-all-debug.js line 19926 that

Code:

this.el.dom.name = '';

is still there before removeAttribute('name') is called; is this intentional?

**jack.slocum** · 11 Apr 2007 11:33 PM

Sorta - it is a "just in case". I guess I could remove it.

**mystix** · 11 Apr 2007 11:56 PM

always good to learn new stuff. just in case
