I was able to make this work without much of a problem using dates in the format they arrive from the database. But that's not an acceptable for the users... and here I started having problems.
It's easy enough to set the dateFormat of the datepicker (as suggested in posts I've seen around), but that does not seem enough. When editing a row, dates are still displayed in ISO format and modified ones, that have been returned with the correct format by the datepicker, are not understood by the Model/MySQL that ends up saving the row with messed up values. I build the field with: echo $this->Form->input('date_start', array( 'type' => 'text', 'class' =>'datepicker', 'size' => 10 )); Before I start writing an Helper (that perhaps generates an hidden field with the date in ISO format and the necessary Javascript to move the displayed value to&from and reformatting as necessary)... I was wondering if there's a better solution around I just have not seen... Can anyone help ?
