Here’s a more elegant solution:
function(val) { return theComboBox.getStore().getById(val).data.nameOfDisplayField; }
Replace “theComboBox” with your combo object and “nameOfDisplayField” with the field that you want to be displayed.

The data is already in an array, inside the combo’s store, so there is no need to create an additional array.

I have the same question. My combo box is gone. Can you be specific about the order here? Just won’t for me if i I loose the combo.

Great work, thanks a lot.

There`s one issue, you should mention. If you use transformation of an existing HTML select box into an ExtJS one, the original select box will be lost after this process. So you have to perform your code before the transformation.

@Joshua – ‘combo-id’ is just a placeholder. Replace it with the actual id of the drop-down you are working with.

Hi, I test your example but it show a error, it can’t find document.getElementById(‘combo-id’), maybe extjs assign a different id???

thanks
