I am trying to allow MM/dd/YYYY or M/d/YYYY.
Or this pattern:
02/04/1998
02/4/1998
2/04/1998
2/4/1998
Seems that the issue has been fixed with this commit. You can now define a day/month/year-date in format d!.M!.yyyy. It allows an optional leading zero for day and month. See this github-issue for more information.
Available as NPM (angular-ui-bootstrap) from V1.0.
Per the Angular UI Bootstrap datepicker documentation, the directive uses the date filter built into angular core (documentation here).
Based on the formatting you desire, you want MM for format-month attribute and dd for the format-day attribute.

Is there any directive in Angular, I want to enable user when he write 2/3/67 in input for date date needs to be formatted like 02/03/1967 I tried few things on my own but they didn't work.
Just add a Angularjs formating, when displaying users input like so
{{yourdate.variable | date:'yyyy-MM-dd'}}
Se more at AnguarJS date function

Here is working Plunker, with different type of dates. Enjoy
I am trying to format an input field of the type xs:date in Orbeon.
I have tried using the xxf:format attribute, but the datepicker can not understand the date when it has been modified.
The idea now was to change the javascript of Orbeon to use the xxf:unformat attribute to interpret the date and transform it back to ISO format.
I've tried changing the data.js but for some reason none of the changes can be seen.
Am I changing the wrong file?
Edit
I figured out that the xforms.js has a function 'getCurrentValue' which is being as the changes I do there are visible. Now I just need to figure out who is the one that's calling the function.
Edit:
It is the Calendar who requests the value of the input when the user clicks on the symbol. This all happens at the client side, and the generated HTML does not have the format/unformat attributes. However I want to use their value. Can I make a request to Orbeon to get it? How?
In case you're using an xf:input bound to a node of type xs:date, you can control the formatting of the date field with the oxf.xforms.format.input.date property. A few formats are supported, and if you want to add more, the best would be to follow the pattern currently used for the currently supported formats.
E.g.
[M]/[D]/[Y]
[Y]-[M01]-[D01]
My multi-language Grails-based website has a switch for locale. I'd like to make sure date values are displayed in the locale set (and in the format currently being used in other outputs of scaffolding as the site is already available to the customer).
Here's an example code I'm using:
<g:formatDate date="${eventInstance?.date}"/>
The solution I came up with following this entry from the manual is:
<g:formatDate date="${eventInstance?.date}" formatName="default.date.format.short" />
and in my i18n/*.properties files settings for default.date.format.short (the global standard, default.date.format, was already set to another format).
I'm currently trying to work in bootstrap x-editable to my meteor application. I'm using the atmosphere package for this: https://github.com/nate-strauser/meteor-x-editable-bootstrap. I'm having a couple of issue so far which are:
When I select a date using the date data-type I get a javascript date object back that is 4 hours behind what I actually picked(assuming this is because I'm in -4 timezone).
When I edit a textarea, the line breaks are saved to the database, but when bring up the editable to edit it the line breaks are striped.
It looks like this might be the intended behavior. Its hard to be sure without more information.
With the date, javascript stores date in unixtime. This is because its very easy to switch timezones and not worry about having javascript itself having to keep track of DST and the other complications of keeping time.
If you use new Date(<the javascript timestamp>); you should get the time in your timezone.
With the textarea it looks like some kind of text-encoding conversion is taking place. You should check to see what the character codes of those stripes are and convert them to newlines like \n. One scenario this could occur is if you're copy-pasting stuff with a different encoding into the textarea.
I am using date fields in Orbeon form builder that should be prefilled with the current date (see http://i42.tinypic.com/erdjrb.jpg). When choosing a date by hand in the form, the date format in resulting XML model is set to "2011-07-12". But when not changing the default value of current-date(), then I get "2011-07-12+02:00". Does anybody know why the date format is different when I prefill it with current-date()?
Thank you!
The XPath function fn:current-date() by definition returns the date together with explicit time zone information. I assume orbeon just passes the function call to the XPath engine (Saxon i think). A quick workaround would be to format the result of current-date() using format-date(), for example:
format-date(current-date(), '[Y]-[M01]-[D01]')
Since i don't use Form Builder, i can't tell in detail, but i assume setting the config options how to format xforms:input controls regarding date and time values applies for form builder, too.
