I'm encountering an issue using the YADCF date filter for DataTables with the Bootstrap-Datetimepicker styling option. The issue is that the Months/Years/ are overflowing from the dropdown container. The weird part is that the actual date selection looks fine. I've included some screenshots below.
This is what the month selection looks like, the year selection looks the same way.
However, the date selection looks normal, like this:
I have other date picker drop downs throughout my app that look normal:
Initializing the date filter field as so:
yadcf.init(tableElement.DataTable(), [
{ column_number : 11,
filter_type: "range_date",
datepicker_type: 'bootstrap-datetimepicker',
date_format: 'YYYY-MM-DD',
filter_container_id: 'yadcfDateDiv'
}]);
I just can't seem to figure out what styling property is needed to resolve this. I've tried adjusting the padding/margins (as suggested in other posts I've found) of the months and such but it just makes them closer together, not below each other like the last screenshot. If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.
Versions
YADCF: 0.9.4
DataTables: 1.10.16
Eonasdan/bootstrap-datetimepicker 4.7.14
After digging through the Eonasdan/bootstrap-datetimepicker documentation, I discovered that the DateTimePicker plugin has a WidgetParent option that can be used to set the parent element in which the widget will reside.
Since I am initializing the DateTimePicker plugin through YADCF and passing in a custom filter_container_id, I found that if I also passed that same element to the WidgetParent property it will display as intended.
I have added the following code to my DataTable initialization function for the page which has resolved this issue:
$('input[id^="#yadcf-filter--orders-datatable"]').data("DateTimePicker").options({
"widgetParent": '#yadcfDateDiv'
});
It selects both of the input fields that are generated by the YADCF plugin which the DateTimePicker objects are bound to and sets the appropriate parent element.
Hopefully this helps some future Googler.
I'm working on Grails project and i need to display group of dates in read-only calendars in my gsp.
The dates extends along 6 months and i need to present them by monthly calendar so i need 6 calendars to put my data into.
any suggestion please ? ( preferably apart from jQuery datePicker )
My data is sent from jQuery getJSON function if it does make any difference!
and here is its code:
$.getJSON("${g.createLink(action:'getTimesAsJSON')}",{id:courseId}, function(data){
$("#selector_forCalendars").show().html(data.times) // pseudo
});
Try Bootstrap 3 Datepicker v4. I found it after jQuery datePicker (it did not works for me too). Very easy, nice docs. Tell us later what you think, or ask more about it here.
EDIT: as someone said above, FullCalendar could be a great option too.
first of all I try to use proper "language" but I am not a programmer. That said...
I don't seem to be able to get jquery mobile to work properly.
When I try to change document.ready(function() { ... })
to
document.on('pagecreate', function(){ ... })
I do not get the same result; in fact I cannot even alert a simple message.
Furthermore I would like to use mousedown and mousedown events. The documentation of jquery mobile tells me that I could use vmousedown and vmouseup. Does not work either. Can someone enlighten me please. the jquery mobile.js is added lastly in my script structure of the dom.
Maybe relevant for others with a similar problem.
Linking to the jquery CDN instead of hosting the files myself solved my problem.
I'm novice with jQuery dialog and I'm looking for a way to replace to ugly confirm javascript function by a jQuery dialog. If possible I would like a solution as easy as possible to set in place.
Example:
if (confirm("Are you sure?")) {
// user click Yes
}
To be replaced by a simple jQuery dialog solution. If possible an 'inline' solution like:
if jQconfirm("Are you sure") { ... }
I don't know if some solutions already exist?
Thanks.
It is complicated to have such an inline solution since the confirm() halts the execution of the script, however you may modify you script a bit and use such a construct:
$.confirm("message", "title",
function() { /* Ok action here*/
});
Check this site for the solution.
try this
http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/#modal-confirmation
its the JqueryUI box, and works well in a model form
I'm working with a dynamic DOM here, and have called the jQuery UI datepicker to all inputs with a specific class name, in this case .date
It works great with the first, static, construct but when I clone it the event handlers don't seem to want to move over. I get the Firebug error:
inst is undefined
I tried looking into jQuery's new live() function but couldn't combine the two. Any ideas?
Ah, got it. Right after I append the HTML to the DOM I run this on all the inputs I'd like to have a datepicker pop up with. Datepicker adds a class to elements it has been attached to, so we can filter out existing inputs and only apply it to new ones.
$('.date').not('.hasDatePicker').datepicker();
I hope this helps people as I was Googling for days and didn't find anything!
You should also note that it would be faster to check for input.date in the new generated HTML by setting that as a context, rather than the whole page, as it will save time, due to this being a more efficient operation.
I had a similar Issue, I had multiple tables on a page and each had multiple datepickers, also on click of button "AddLine" it added a table row with dynamic HTML and datepicker.
I realized after a lot of search that my input date fields had no "id" defined they looked like this
<input type="text" class="datepicker" name="mDate1" value="" size=8 >
jquery was pointing all the date fields values to the very first date field defined on page, the calendar would popup on all the date fields but the value of 1st date field would change, I made a change to the html like this
<input type="text" class="datepicker" id="Date1" name="mDate1" value="" size=8 >
by adding a "id" and it started working, for the dynamic date fields I change the Id like this
var allColumns = $("#"+$tableId+" tr:last td");
$(allColumns).each(function (i,val) {
if($(val).find(":input").hasClass("datepicker")){
$(val).find(":input").attr("id",newId+$(val).find(":input").attr("id"));
}
});
You need to use the 'live' event to make it work with dynamic DOM. So, if the class for your datepicker inputs is 'date-input', following code will make it work:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.date-input').live('click', function() {
$(this).datepicker('destroy').datepicker({showOn:'focus'}).focus();
});
});
This might be a little late, but all the suggestions above didn't work for me, I came up with an easy solution for this.
First, what is causing the problem:
JQuery assign datepicker to element id. if you are cloning element, then same id might be cloned as well. which jQuery doesn't like. You might end up with either receiving null reference error or the date being assigned to first input field regardless which input field you click on.
Solution:
1) destroy datepicker
2) assign new unique ids to all input field
3) assign datepicker for each input
Make sure your input is something like this
<input type="text" name="ndate[]" id="date1" class="n1datepicker">
Before you clone, destroy datepicker
$('.n1datepicker').datepicker('destroy');
After you clone, add these lines as well
var i = 0;
$('.n1datepicker').each(function () {
$(this).attr("id",'date' + i).datepicker();
i++;
});
and the magic happens
Use
$j(id or class).removeClass('hasDatepicker').datepicker();
It is working
Use jQuery selectors:
$(".mydatepicker:not(.hasDatepicker)").datepicker()
Multiple instances of the jquery-ui library on the page will cause this error too. Removing redundant instances work for my case
I experienced the same symptom, in this caused by having a td containing element with the same id attribute as the input,
<td id="fld_xyz"><input id="fld_xyz" class="date" /></td>
I know this isn't ideal anyway, but it's worth knowing that the datepicker component seems to be relying on the uniqueness of the id.
I had this problem. My situation ended up being I had another element with the same ID as the input with the datepicker.
Today I faced the same issue... I am using datetimepicker plugin in my application.
Also using jquery's default datepicker too. When ever I am invoking them both on document ready I am getting the error inst is undefined.
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".datepickerCustom").datetimepicker();
$(".datepicker").datepicker();
$("#MainForm").validationEngine('attach');
....
});
So I changed the code to invoke before document ready like below:
$(".datepickerCustom").datetimepicker();
$(".datepicker").datepicker();
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#MainForm").validationEngine('attach');
....
});
Now every thing is working fine. No problems.
I had a similar problem with data picker not working after a first call. I found an answer to my issue here:
http://www.stemkoski.com/problem-with-jquery-ui-datepicker-dynamic-dom/
I was cloning sections dynamically from template and inadvertently including the class that datepicker adds once its called:
hasDatepicker
I placed my first datepicker call after I clone the template and that did it. I then added a datepicker call after each instance of clone:
$(source).clone().appendTo(destination).find(".datepicker").datepicker();
After trying many of the answers here, this is what worked for me and is showing on the first click/focus
function vincularDatePickers() {
$('.mostrar_calendario').live('click', function () {
$(this).datepicker({ showButtonPanel: true, changeMonth: true, changeYear: true, showOn: 'focus' }).focus();
});
}
this needs that your input have the class 'mostrar_calendario'
live is for JQuery 1.3+ for newer versions you need to adapt this to "on"
See more about the difference here http://api.jquery.com/live/
If it still doesn't work, it is because of the cloned id. You can completely remove datepicker like this:
$(selector).removeClass('hasDatepicker').removeAttr('id').datepicker();
