guess more than 100 people have already gotten it, I just tried and it charged me the $4.99 but it's $5 so who really cares?

[jgarcia@tdg-i.com]

10 people, not 100 .

Thanks for the support dude.

Thanks for the promotion, and thanks for your contributions (both to jsmag and extjs!)

It's not been widely publicized yet, and not yet prominent on the website either, but a 12 month subscription is now 10% off.

Thanks again - feedback (good or bad) to michael@jsmag.com is appreciated.

Page 18 - second column: The url for firebug is listed as "http://firebug.com". It should be "http://getfirebug.com"

Very nice article - well worth the price.

I do have one question - on page 18 when you talk about the beforeDestroy() method, you state:

The beforeDestroy method is executed: This is the first method
to be called within the destroy method, and is a great opportunity
to destroy any loosely coupled widgets (such as Menus or
Windows).

What is a "loosely coupled widget" that needs to be destroyed manually, and what widgets will get destroyed automatically when the component is destroyed?

Thanks for catching that - it's been fixed.

Anything that is created inside the widget that isn't added to the items collection. For example, the DateMenu that is created inside the DateField.

So, if it's inside "items: []" it will be destroyed automatically; otherwise it won't, right?

That makes sense.

Loosely coupled as in Windows or Menus created by a grid panel.

Btw, thanks for the correction.
