Date Picker

Hi there,
Anyone had any experience with the inbuilt Jojo date picker and how to set it up on a form?

Harvey had a quick word with me yesterday about it but I didn't get much detail out of it.

Cheers

It's not integrated into Jojo as such - we just use it on the admin pages for certain date input elements.

Pretty much everything you need to know is in the readme
http://jonathanleighton.com/projects/date-input

• include jquery in the head of your document (already there by default)
• include dimensions js file (dimensions plugin is also in the jojo_core/externals/ folder)
• include date_input js file (stick this code in customhead.tpl)
• include the css file
• add 'class="date_input"' to all your date fields.
• add "$($.date_input.initialize);" inside some script tags in the head of the document (also customhead.tpl)

And that's basically it. The only complications introduced by Jojo is that you need to change the path to the js files (external/folder/file.js) and you need to add the js includes to customhead.tpl

Let me know which part you are getting stuck on if this doesn't help.
