Just to mention. jQuery has delegate too http://api.jquery.com/delegate/ with the same behaviour like in ExtJS but as you would assume a little different syntax

@Frederick could you please give more details on how you are using XTemplates for generating custom views? Thanks!

@Jonathan @radu I use XTemplates for generating custom views inside of components, this is where I most often use event delegation – it’s not strictly a ‘dealing with page elements’ thing. Very useful for custom components.

@Jonathan. You are absolutely right Jonathan! I just wanted to provide an insight on how one can do this, if needed. I will come up in a future post with other tips on events, this time on component events and global application events. Thanks for the visit!

Nice post. It’s worth noting that when building an Ext JS application you are more likely to deal with events on Components rather than events on page elements. This is because of the beautiful abstraction that Ext JS provides: for example, you work with an Ext.grid.GridPanel JavaScript object as opposed to the underlying collection of tables and divs.

Event delegation with Ext JS is incredibly useful for sure. Nice write-up.
