SideFlow, created by MediaEvent Services is a pretty radical way of providing a ‘CoverFlow’ effect with pure Javascript.  I’ll be honest, I am disappointed with the speed, but expected it to perform the way it is.  I mean it is javascript.    I still have to say that it’s very impressive.

According to the blog article, it uses  the Tigra Slider control, Scriptaculous and Prototype

Below is an example of how to get a formPanel to work inside of an Ext.Window really easily. Simply call the class’s .show() method with a json object or an instance of a Ext.Data.Record object and it will do the rest. I realize that this should have probably been done in a ‘module’ or ’singleton’ pattern but I wanted to exercise my use of classes and Ext.extend, etc. In fact, the class could have been blown out more to accept any instance of a form, etc, but I started to get crunched on time.

Here we talk about Ext.extend and how it can be used to your advantage to ‘extend’ or ‘override’ methods or properties from one class to another.

This page serves as a test bed for my future venture in sketch casting.

In response to this thread at the Ext forums, I initially created a simple override (Click here to see it action) to the Ext Border Layout. The solution was a quick one hour deal with no magic or gloss. There was some posts soon there after that requested more functionality for this override. These requests include:

• images for the east/west regions (for CBC)
• ability to re-use the original title
• the freedom to insert what ever element object or HTML fragment the end developer desired
• change from override to extension.

So, I’ve rolled up all of these requests into one Ext.ux.TDGi.BorderLayout class. This solution provides all of the freedom flexibility that was requested.
