Question

ExtJS: How to submit both: combobox value and text using standardSubmit?

Answer 1

To submit the valueField, you must specify a hiddenName to create a hidden input field to hold the value of the valueField. You must also set submitValue to true

e.g.

var unitField = new Ext.form.ComboBox({
    id:'unitField',
    name: 'unit',
    submitValue : true,
    fieldLabel: 'Unit',
    store:unitStore,
    mode: 'remote',
    displayField: 'name',
    valueField: 'id',
    hiddenName : 'unitId',
    allowBlank: false,
    anchor:'95%',
    triggerAction: 'all'
});

So you get the value sent as unitId and the text as unit
