date picker on V4 RC3.0

ajw3208 03 Jan, 2012
Hi Bob,

Its been a while, but this is a good thing as all has been running well under CFV3.

I have decided to update to V4 as the new Mootools became important and it broke V3 as is well documented.

I'm having little trouble building a form via the wizard. The stumbling block is the datepicker. have looked at the many posts around RC2 and decided it was all too hard, so hence RC3.

I have added a filed and it appears in the form, but there is no picker to speak of, just a field.

what am I doing wrong.? (if anything).

thanks

Anthony

ps. judging by the correspondence and the activity on the forum on this subject, a basic tutorial around datepicker would be good.

Hi,

When you click the field you should get the datepicker loaded.

Hey Max,

Its been a while.

no datepicker is presented when the field is clicked on, regardless os client
the problem seems to be browser independent.

Hi ajw3208,

Does the form validation work? It sounds to me as though there may be a JavaScript conflict on the page. Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Thanks to Max for some personal service on this one. It certainly pays to subscribe to CF. The support response was excellent.

The date picker is sensitive to the format of the event.

I had added "yyyy/mm/dd" to the date picket settings field, this string is wrong and caused a JS error which broke both the date picker and the validation scripts, if the format is changed then be careful. Make sure it is correct. . Otherwsie, leave it along and it works fine.

changed it (i.e reset to default) and all is good.

Many thanks Max.
