The dojox.widget.Calendar lets us scroll over the years easily. Can that be simulated/added to the DateTextBox widget?
I prefer the DateTextBox because of the validations and constraints it provides. Also, once opened, the Calendar widget (as in the livedocs site) cannot be closed till a date is selected. Whereas, the popup calendar in the DateTextBox does not have this problem.
The need is this: for a Date of Birth field, we cannot assume one random default year as, let's say, the potential users might be born any time between 1960 to 2000. So, the user might have to do multiple clicks (the older he is, the more number of clicks?!!). How can this usability problem be addressed? The Calendar widget helps in easy navigation. But the DateTextBox shows only 3 years at a time.
Can this be done with any CSS change? Any possible mix and match of components?
I am using v1.7.1
Thanks!
I have the same need. There is an open ticket (10002) but nothing has been done for years. I will try to get an answer on the mailing list.

I'm stuck on this and I can not figure out a solution.
I'm building an iOS app that will provide a list of favorites to a user.
Example, it will list 10 items which a user will have to select their favorite vs another item
So you may have:
Ice Cream vs Cake
Apple vs Orange
XBox vs PS4
etc....
I can't seem to figure out how will I be able to store the answers that the user selects?
The view will be two buttons side by side with the "VS" in the middle. When the user selects one of the choices it should highlight their selection (10 in total since their are 10 selections to make) and then after they provide their answers to their favorites they can submit their responses.
Again, I just don't know how to capture those responses? Has anyone done something as suck already.
Is it possible to allow the datepicker to only display certain months for user selection in orbeon form? e.g. only display Jan - Aug 2020? Or, is it possible to disable all dates out of those months?
You can exclude specific days (dates), so those days become greyed out in the date picker, and the value is also invalid if somehow one of those days gets selected. This is convenient to, say, exclude holidays. But it seems that supporting a start/end date is what you're looking for. This isn't yet implemented, see request for enhancement #4557.
So, for now, you can only enforce this through a formula (in Control Settings → Validations and Alerts). Users will still be able to select the date, i.e. it won't be greyed out in the date picker, but they will immediately see a message telling them that the date is invalid.
I would like to create a Google forms that will help me to track problems at work. Employees would fill the form if they experience any problem at a specific station. I do not want problems to be reported more than once.
So let's say employee 1 fill the form to tell me there is a problem at station 4 and the next day employee 2 realises the same problem at station 4. I would like him to see within the Google Forms that the problem has already been submitted.
Is there any way to do that?
I finally decided to create a form that sends the results to a spreadsheet. I embedded both the form and the spreadsheet on a website, so people can see what's been submitted already. Not the ideal solution, but it'll work just fine. Thank you for your help!
I am trying to work on a google sheet where one Tab will be an entry form and another will be a database. I need the form to be used by multiple users. Currently the Form tab displays all changes to other users so multiple users cannot use it at the same time.
Is there a way to allow 1 user to see their own entries and a 2nd user to see different entries. When they press my button it should record their individual entries on the database tab.
I cannot use Google Forms for this project due to the complexity of the form and the need for cascading drop-down lists and dynamically available information on the form.
Thanks
After researching extensively, the answer to my question is that there does not seem to be a good way of doing this.
My final approach was to create a tab for each user with the calculations, cascading dropdowns, and buttons/scripts that affected their specific sheet and recorded data on the database tab based on their specific sheet.
Hopefully, this helps the next guy who is searching for this answer. If anyone has found a way to solve this, let me know so I can test and give you credit for solving what I could not.
I'm creating an event application in Rails 4 and am wondering how I would approach a solution to the following problem. I have events and I want to display them on a date page.
For example if I have two events on August 24th I would like to show both of those events on a the August 24 page (/events/08/24/2015). I'm not sure how to generate pages for the current and next year in rails and how to properly setup the routing.
Can someone help me with a solution and/or a good place to start? Not quite sure how to approach this problem. Want to do something similar to this: http://omahype.com/2015/08/24
