always show calendar

[Fladi]

Hi there!

I just got this wonderful plugin working.

I used this code in order to pop-up the calendar when the image is
"mouse-overd".

<%= popup_calendar 'resource', 'date',
{ :class => 'date',
:field_title => 'resource',
:button_image => 'calendar.gif',
:button_title => 'Show calendar' },
{ :firstDay => 1,
:range => [2007, 2008],
:step => 1,
:showOthers => true,
:cache => true,
:eventName =>'mouseover',
:electric => false}
%>

It works great. Now I would like to show the calendar always. Is there
a way to do this? I tryed to use just <%= calendar .... but this isn't
working. I would like to have it as a date picker as on
http://37signals.blogs.com/products/2007/06/improved_date_p.html .

Any ideas?

Thanks

hmm, I think :flat is not working properly. Let me have a look.

Thanks for the mouseover example!

Hi Ed,

ok.

:eventName => 'load' is working fine. Unfortunately only the first
time the page loads. After selecting a date, the calendar closes.

thanks for the great plugin ;-)

Ah, great. The calendar shows up as wished ;-) Unfortunately the input-
field is no loger updated with the value clicked. Did I miss
something?

<%= calendar 'resource', 'date',
{ :class => 'date',
:form_name => 'sform'},
{ :firstDay => 1,
:range => [2007, 2009],

:step => 1,
:showOthers => true,

:electric => true,
}
%>

The input-tag is correctly inserted in the rendered page. Any clue?

thanks for the fix

regards
Tim

Can you check your calendar.js to make sure you got the fix "too much
recursion" fix?

if ( !Date.prototype.__msh_oldSetFullYear ) {....

Thanks

Yes it's there. ....

if ( !Date.prototype.__msh_oldSetFullYear ) {
Date.prototype.__msh_oldSetFullYear = Date.prototype.setFullYear;
Date.prototype.setFullYear = function(y) {
var d = new Date(this);
d.__msh_oldSetFullYear(y);
if (d.getMonth() != this.getMonth())
this.setDate(28);
this.__msh_oldSetFullYear(y);
};
}

Can you provide me this plugin and give me some first steps to use it?

Thanks in advance

You can download the latest version via SVN. The URL is:
http://dhtml-calendar.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/

The plugin is shipped with a good documentation...
