TreeLoader.js

/**
 * @class Ext.tree.TreeLoader
 * @extends Ext.util.Observable
 * A TreeLoader provides for lazy loading of an {@link Ext.tree.TreeNode}'s child
 * nodes from a specified URL. The response must be a javascript Array definition
 * who's elements are node definition objects. eg:
 * <pre><code>
   [{ 'id': 1, 'text': 'A folder Node', 'leaf': false },
    { 'id': 2, 'text': 'A leaf Node', 'leaf': true }]
</code></pre>
 * <br><br>
 * A server request is sent, and child nodes are loaded only when a node is expanded.
 * The loading node's id is passed to the server under the parameter name "node" to
 * enable the server to produce the correct child nodes.
 * <br><br>
 * To pass extra parameters, an event handler may be attached to the "beforeload"
 * event, and the parameters specified in the TreeLoader's baseParams property:
 * <pre><code>
    myTreeLoader.on("beforeload", function(treeLoader, node) {
        this.baseParams.category = node.attributes.category;
    }, this);
</code></pre><
 * This would pass an HTTP parameter called "category" to the server containing
 * the value of the Node's "category" attribute.
 * @constructor
 * Creates a new Treeloader.
 * @param {Object} config A config object containing config properties.
