Date Picker question

[axelm]

Hello All,

can somebody tell me if this DatePicker code
( http://www.monkeyphysics.com/mootools/script/2/datepicker )
can be used on a tiddler?
I tried, but couldn't get it to work.

thanks,

axelm

This would be the most awesome input field.
On this page:
http://marcgrabanski.com/articles/clean-calendar

Look at the first text field called "Date Select 1"

how to do?

Hi axelm

Do you know calendar plugin http://www.tiddlytools.com/#CalendarPlugin
, http://www.tiddlytools.com/#DatePlugin
and http://remindermacros.tiddlyspot.com/ or http://tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com/#ReminderMacros
(There's a datepicker included in the remindermacros plugin - don't
know how to isolate it though)

Cheers Måns Mårtensson

Hi,

I'm using the datePicker code from :

http://svn.tiddlywiki.org/Trunk/contributors/SaqImtiaz/libraries/DatePicker.js

This code is used by mGSD (Simon Baird , http://monkeygtd.blogspot.com/)

Do you use it in a "standard TW" ?

I tried to setup a standard TW[0] with datepickerlibrary[1] and
dateChooserPlugin [2] - I found the plugins in a thread on this
forum[3].

There are *a lot* of dependencies to "things" in the heavily
customized mGSD-document - and I haven't been able to make it work
yet....

Do you have a working example?

Hi Måns,

See http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9385804/FrDPlugins.html (tiddler : FormElementzDateChooser)

You can also use it with DataTiddlerPlugin (http://tiddlywiki.abego-software.de/#Plugins) if you modify one of the last lines :
instead of :

  tid.setHData(el.champ,objDate.convertToLocalYYYYMMDD());

write something like :

tid.setData(el.champ,objDate.convertToLocalYYYYMMDD());

I've not tried myself ...

Sorry Måns,

it seems it's a bit more complicated.

Il's better to start with the original DataPicker tiddler in mGSG.

Hi Måns,

I've found in one of my old TW a version of DatePicker which works with DataTiddlerPlugin.
Take a look at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9385804/FrDPlugins.html (tiddler : zfrDDateChooserWithData)

Thanks a lot :-)
I will investigate...

Hey all

I've set up a datepicker using the plugins from
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9385804/FrDPlugins.html

how do I get FET to fetch the date data?

thanks in advance

sklpns

[sklpns]

Thanks to FrD the answer to my own question is something like

<<forEachTiddler
 write
 'tiddler.getHData("date")+"\n"'
>>

(where date is the name of the slot used)

This will get the date as a string : "YYYYMMDD"
But how do I get FET to present the date in a -sortable- format like DD/MM/YYYY or 16 February 2011 and so on?

thanks in advance
