[Users] How to add a footer to a viewport?

[Matt Priour]

Not to a Viewport but that is only because a Viewport is specialized panel 
component that always has a 'border' layout property and always fills the 
entire viewport.

What I have done in the past when I needed a static header / footer or both 
and didn't want excessively complex nested layouts is to define my static 
areas in HTML and my dynamic area gets a placeholder div in the HTML. Then, 
in ExtJS code I just configure my parent component with a 'border' layout 
property and configure all the application parts inside that just like I 
would have with a viewport.

ex:

<div id='headerDiv'><img src=...></div>
<div id='dynamicDiv'></div>
<div id='footerDiv'><p>blah, bleck, ... </p></div>

Ext.onReady(function(){
    var myViewport = new Ext.Panel({
        layout:'border',
        renderTo:'dynamicDiv',
        items:[
            {region:'east', .... },
            {region:'center', ....},
            etc...
        ]})
});
