Hi there,

I'm trying to replicate the advice given in the following thread:
www.j-cook.pro/forum/9-coding-inside-you...r-datefrom-is-filled

...and update another calendar field with the picked-date+1yr. If I alter the JDom type from calendar to text, it works.

My code is here:

<?php echo JDom::_('html.form.input.calendar', array(
                                                                                                'selectors' => array(
                                                                                                'onChange' => htmlspecialchars("updatedate();"),
                                                                                                'rel' => 'foo'),
                                                                                                dataKey' => 'assigned_on',
                                                                                                'dataObject' => $this->numbersitem,
                                                                                                'dateFormat' => "%Y-%m-%d",
                                                                                                'domClass' => "validate[custom[timeYYYYmmdd]]",
                                                                                                'validatorHandler' => "timeYYYYmmdd"
                                                                                                ));
?>

It results in the following html (with no onchange):

<input type="text" title="Monday, 21 March 2011" name="assigned_on" id="assigned_on" value="2011-03-21" class="inputbox validate-timeYYYYmmdd validate[custom[timeYYYYmmdd]]">

Is there a way of using the selectors with the JDom input type for the calendar?

Hi @theitd

Double check the source of the form because the calendar is just a widget. Even when you use the calendar, you are actually storing the value into a text field using a date mask according to your specifications.

In fact, if you want to make it 1 year after, it's probably best not to give the user access to change the second date. Anyway, however you choose to do it, you should check out this over at jquery:
forum.jquery.com/topic/jquery-date-problem

Thank you, perfect!

I've added the <%SELECTORS%> tag to the calendar input form in:
<component_name>/dom/html/form/input/calendar.php

So the variable $html is now defined (from line 143) as....

$html = self::calendar(
                                       $formatedDate,
                                       $this->getInputName(),
                                       $this->getInputId(),
                                       $this->dateFormat,
                                       'class="' . $this->getDomClass() . '"<%STYLE%><%SELECTORS%>',

The link to the datepicker+1 is precisely what I'm trying to do too.
As a PHP and jQuery noob, j-cook has proved really useful - so thanks very much for the help.
