Hello!
In v4 we had a Date and Time picker field - wich checking a chackbox one could easily add a field wich leyt users pinck a DATE and a TIME. Now in v5 we finally had a DATE picker - Thanks!! - but I am missing that functionality. I am migrating a Joomla 1.5 site to latest Joomla, and the original site used this trick:

How can I implement this functionality in v5? Or need to stick with v4 if I want this?
TIA!

Hi webgone,

The new built-in datepicker has fewer features than the old one :-(

The simplest solution may be to use a third-party JQuery datepicker linked to a plain text input. There;s an example in this FAQ

Thanks, GreyHead!
I solved the issue, based on your tip, using this library:

I'm fine0tuning it, as will be ready, will post the URL and details of the solution.

Hi webgobe,

Thank you - an interesting picker. I've just added a link to this page with a list of jQuery time and time+date pickers (including this one) to the FAQs.
