Explain Features Of Ext Js.?
Customizable UI widgets with collection of rich UI such as Grids, pivot grids, forms, charts, trees.
Code compatibility of new versions with the older one.
A flexible layout manager helps to organize the display of data and content across multiple browsers, devices, and screen sizes.
Advance data package decouples the UI widgets from the data layer. The data package allows client-side collection of data using highly functional models that enable features such as sorting and filtering.
It is protocol agnostic, and can access data from any back-end source.
Customizable Themes Ext JS widgets are available in multiple out-of-the-box themes that are consistent across platforms.
Explain Advantage Of Using Ext Js.?
Streamlines cross-platform development across desktops, tablets, and smartphones — for both modern and legacy browsers.
Increases the productivity of development teams by integrating into enterprise development environments via IDE plugins.
Reduces the cost of web application development.
Empowers teams to create apps with a compelling user experience.
It has set of widgets for making UI powerful and easy.

Store.getModifiedRecords()method is used to get modified records.
How To Update Records In The Store?

How To Get Store Record Using Index?
If we have grid Id : Ext.getCmp('gridId').getStore().getAt(index);
If we have store Id: Ext.getStore('storeId').getAt(index);
What Is Function To Load Store Data?

Tell Me What Is Maximum Size Of Http Post Request?

Explain Namespace Importance?
An example which utilizes 3 distinctly different sets of scripts from different organizations. We use Ext JS for enhancements, Google Analytics for tracking site usage and the native vBulletin scripts. You can see how all of this code from different sources has been included in the same page.
Namespacing is important for developers in order to organize their code and ensure that their code is not overwritten when loaded in the JavaScript interpreter. If another developer defines a variable with the same name your existing definition will be overwritten.
Because JavaScript is a functionally scoped language creating a function and/or variable which is not wrapped in another function will result in that variable being created in the global scope (window). To combat this, developers place their classes in Objects.
As the client-side JavaScript included in web applications gets larger and more advanced, organization of 3rd party code and your own code becomes increasingly important. Using namespaces will ensure your JavaScript code is safe from other code overwriting it in the global namespace.
Example grid pre-configured class,apply config, Register Grid , used as xtype
http://examples.extjs.eu/ (grid in border layout)
What Is Loadmask And Its Use?
Loadmask is used to prevent any other operation by showing loading(or Custom message) to the user until data gets rendered to the grid. Loadmask: true; is the property to show loadmask while data getting rendered to the grid.
What Is Renderer And Its Use?
Renderer is used when we want to manipulate the data which we get from store to show manipulated data based on some criteria. It is a column property can be used as:
renderer: function(value, metadata, record, rowIndex, colIndex, store){
// logic to perform
}
How To Get Value Of An Element In Ext Js?
Ext.getCmp('id').getValue();
How To Hide Column In The Grid?
Hidden: true;
What Is The Property For Sorting In The Grid?
Sortable: true; which is default true.
How To Write Before And After Load Events In The Store?
grid.getStore().on({
beforeload : function(store) {
// perform some operation
},
load : {
fn : function(store) {
//perform some operation
},
scope : this
}
store.load();
});
How Ext Js 6 Can Be Used For Both Desktop And Mobile Applications?
