How to keep the format of ExtJS timefield in 24hours
extjs, timefield
Solution
The reason is simple. `getValue` returns date object, `getSubmitValue` returns formatted date. You just need to format a date received by `getValue` method.
var field = Ext.getCmp('startTime');
var value = field.getValue();
var formattedValue = Ext.Date.format(value, 'H:i');

Problem
I am trying to create a timefield combo box with extJS. I have done this successfully but now I have a problem when I get the value that I select in the combo box. First the code for making the timefield: ``` items :[{ fieldLabel: 'Start Time', name: 'startTime', xtype: 'timefield', id: 'startTime', format: 'H:i', altFormats:'H:i', increment: 30 }] ``` What I want is to get the value in a 24h format. In order to get the value from the time field I use this code: ``` var startTime = Ext.getCmp('startTime').getSubmitValue(); ``` The problem is that instead of getting the time in 24hour format, the values are transformed into 12 hours format. For example, while I select from the combo the time: 00:00 when I use getSubmitValue() the value is transformed into 12:00 AM, which is not very useful in my case. My question is: Is there a way to keep the format of the time exactly how it is in the combo box? That would be a 24hour format. I hope it's clear what I am trying to say. Thanks Dimitris
