extjs filter editor

Question

Hi, does extJS have any kind of visual filtering tool for its grids.

there are three sample criterias in the next line which are added by the user, and an x button to remove the criteria.

Sample Filter:

[Business Unit=Accounting-x] [Name like 'Jo*'-x] [Age between 25-33-x]

Personnel Grid (displaying the filtered data)

1 33 Josh Accounting

2 35 John Accounting

Answer 1

It's been a while since I used Ext, but if I remember correctly, you can access the store property of the grid control. This gives you an Ext.data.Store which has a filter method that can take either a String or a RegEx. You can then update the grid control (I don't remember if this is required or not, but I seem to remember it being required in Ext 2.1).

Look at the API documentation for Ext.data.store.
