RE: Replacing Date Selector

[Jim O'Callaghan]

Alejandro,

That's exactly what I am looking for - I'm sure I can adapt it to pull in 
whatever date library I want - I like the facility in the jQuery date picker to 
display say three months at a time - it seems much faster to navigate to 
specific date using it - thanks.

Regards,
Jim.

Hi Jim

I'm using ChenilleKit's DateTimeField component as a replacement for
the Tapestry's default date component.
To use it as the default editor for all your date properties you just need to:

Create your Editor page:

public class EditBlocks
{

        @Environmental
        @Property(write = false)
        private PropertyEditContext propertyEditContext;

        @Component(parameters = {"value=propertyEditContext.propertyValue",
"label=prop:propertyEditContext.label",
                        "clientId=propertyEditContext.propertyid",
"validate=prop:dateFieldValidator"})
        private DateTimeField dateField;

        public FieldValidator getDateFieldValidator()
        {
                return propertyEditContext.getValidator(dateField);
        }


And it's template:

<div xml:space="default"
xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd";>

        <t:block id="date">
                <t:label for="dateField"/>
                <input t:id="dateField"/>
        </t:block>

And then contribute your own BeanBlockContribution with the name "date"

        public static void
contributeBeanBlockSource(Configuration<BeanBlockContribution>
configuration)
        {
                configuration.add(new BeanBlockContribution("date", 
"EditBlocks",
"date", true));

It will override the one used by default.


Is this what you were looking for? or your question was about jQuery's
date component in particular?


Saludos.
Alejandro.
