By default, a FormPanel in ExtJS 3.1.0 posts the form fields as application/x-www-form-urlencoded when you call its submit() function.

Is there any way to get it to post JSON instead?

You can use getValues() to pull the values and then Ext.encode() them and manually do an Ext.Ajax.request({}) with this data as well.
