/** * @class Ext.form.Hidden * @extends Ext.form.BaseField *

A basic hidden field for storing hidden values in forms that need to be passed in the form submit.

*

This creates an actual input element with type="submit" in the DOM. While its label is * {@link #hideLabel not rendered} by default, it is still a real component and may be sized according to * its owner container's layout.

*

Because of this, in most cases it is more convenient and less problematic to simply * {@link Ext.form.action.Action#params pass hidden parameters} directly when * {@link Ext.form.Basic#submit submitting the form}.

*

Example:

*
new Ext.form.FormPanel({
    title: 'My Form',
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textfield',
        fieldLabel: 'Text Field',
        name: 'text_field',
        value: 'value from text field'
    }, {
        xtype: 'hiddenfield',
        name: 'hidden_field_1',
        value: 'value from hidden field'
    }],

    buttons: [{
        text: 'Submit',
        handler: function() {
            this.up('form').getForm().submit({
                params: {
                    hidden_field_2: 'value from submit call'
                }
            });
        }
    }]
});
*

Submitting the above form will result in three values sent to the server: * text_field=value+from+text+field&hidden_field_1=value+from+hidden+field&
hidden_field_2=value+from+submit+call
