Could the screen edge be detected and the datepicker flipped to the other side of the icon? Jez Hi, Ah - I see. I thought that was just how you cropped the screenshot! At the moment the date picker doesn't detect the edge of the screen and position itself sensibly. This is on my TODO list and would definitely be a useful feature... In the meantime, you can do the change through CSS. See lines 64 and 73 of my CSS file. You could change both of these values to flip which side the date picker appeared on globally. Alternatively , you could do something like I show in this demo: http://kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/datePicker/alignDemo.html Hope that helps, Kelvin :) ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Re: [jQuery] datePicker
We also have an upcoming need for a calendar component. Our release is Feb. 26th so I'm not sure if this is going to make it in by then (or if I'll have it done in time).

Re: [jQuery] datePicker changes layout
When I apply the datepicker to an input, it alters the layout of the items in the form. http://www.texotela.co.uk/datepickerbug.php How can I prevent this from happening? It looks like the elements that the date picker adds so that there is somewhere for the pop up calendar to appear are disturbing the layout of your form. For now all I can suggest is playing with the CSS to get the result you are after. You can look at the styles I use for the inputs on the demo page as there is no shuffling there... In the longer term I'll look into changing the way the date picker is attached so that it can be absolutely positioned in the right place rather than inserting markup around the relevant inputs. I'm guessing I can probably borrow some code from the tool tip plugins or dimensions.js to help with this? Cheers, Kelvin :) ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

oops. stupid me...I forgot to re-activate the plugin.

Hi Stefan, devsteff [c] wrote: hi community and kevin luck, It's keLvin but that's OK :) first i must thank kevin you for his great datepicker. it's really fantastic and fits perfect into my project (even the css :)). Glad you like it! but unfortunately he forget the old world in his predefiend dateFormats versions. here in swiss, austria, and german is the . the regular dateFormat separator. so i've changed your plugin a bit and made the formatting/parsing of a date a bit more generic. Sorry - didn't mean to leave anyone out! Thanks for your patch, I've reviewed it and added it into the plugin. This does mean that anyone who upgrades the plugin and who is setting a date format will need to edit their code but it adds a great deal of flexibility. if you find this patch usefull, pls. commit it into the SVN. Done :) btw, i have some feature requests: 1) i need the ability to select a date in the far future (life insurance finalization date ~ +20 years, that should not be on weekend, so i need to lookup into the calendar). i.e. year paging as well as month paging or direkt year selectiong (select box) This must be the most requested feature for the plugin. It's something I originally thought unnecessary but since there has been so many requests for it I am willing to implement it. When I next get a free couple of hours I'll look at adding it in... 2) the possibility to set the weeks startday for example to sunday I did this earlier this week. Check through the plugin's page ( http://kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/datePicker/ ) and you will find an example (basically when you initialise the datePicker you pass in a 'firstDayOfWeek' - this allows different datePickers on the same page to start on different days of the week (if you so desire). did you (kevin) plan something like that? if not, i will take this version and start a branch... regards stefan Thanks for the feedback and the patch!

Re: [jQuery] datePicker plugin IE memory leak fixed
Hi Milian, Thanks for the feedback. This is something that has been requested quite a few times. However, I'm still not convinced by the usefulness of it, I have never needed this functionality on a page I have made or used. Since it seems to be a popular request I'll consider adding it in in the future but am too busy to do it at the moment... Re. not being able to move backwards, this depends on how you use the date picker. By default it only lets you select dates in the future but as documented on the plugin's page, you can pass a startDate (and endDate) into the plugin to control which dates people can select. The startDate can be in the past and then a user will be able to select dates back to that date... Cheers, Kelvin :) Milian Wolff wrote: Hello Kelvin.
