RE: [flexcoders] DateField: selectableRange

[Deepa Subramaniam]

Setting the selectableRange means only the dates between rangeStart and rangeEnd (or in your case from rangeStart onwards) are selectable – that is why the calendar starts at rangeStart upon startup. There’s no way to select a date earlier then rangeStart. If you want to keep the range of dates open and just disable some ranges from being selected, then look into setting disabledRanges.   Upon making a selection in a DateField, when it is re-opened it will remain at the date last selected. If you want to keep the calendar at a particular selected date when the app is re-loaded, you’ll have to write a mechanism where that selected date is stored somewhere and re-set when the app is loaded again.   -deepa   -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simard, Ghislain Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 2:59 PM To: 'flexcoders@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [flexcoders] DateField: selectableRange   it works well except the calendar is always showing the rangeStart date by default.  How to get the calendar back to the month and year of the date selected when you reload the page?

Both those properties take an Object which contains two properties - rangeStart and rangeEnd which are Date objects. For example: <mx:DateField selectableRange="{ {rangeStart: new Date(2006, 1, 1), rangeEnd: new Date(2006, 1, 16)} }" /> Will make it such that the DateField enables the range 1/1/06 to 1/16/06 as selectable. In your case, you'd want to do: <mx:DateField id="myDate" selectableRange="{ {rangeStart: new Date(2004,4,1)} }"/> HTH - Deepa -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simard, Ghislain Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 1:12 PM To: 'flexcoders@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [flexcoders] DateField: selectableRange What I am trying to do is to get the calendar selectable only from 1 April 2001.
