Hi I have a suggestion, or if you know of an implementation or have any theories as to how it could be easily implemented those are much appreciated as responses,
I looked in the documentation, looked through examples, and did a few searches on the matter and that returned nothing, so here's the idea. I've been working with autocomplete, and to a lesser extent the rest of jQuery UI. And as I used the plugin I loved the unobtrusive nature that it had. You type, and it updates without interfering. Recently I finally decided to start experimenting with the rest of the UI and became disappointed with the Datepicker's behavior. I like that it's a calendar implementation. That's good, and it does what it should. But the problem lies in the fact that if I tab to a Datepicker input and want to keep typing, I'm brought to an abrupt halt in my quest to have the option of typing. I'm wondering if there is a way, or if it could be added to a to do list, to allow for typing input and have an unobtrusive datepicker float below showing the calendar moving to the correct spot as I update it (For example typing 1/ would automatically move the calendar to January, or if in european date format select the first day of the month, typing to 1/12 would move to January 12th or December 1st, and typing the year would put the year correctly etc.). This would put the focus on text input while giving mouse click as an option as opposed to the current one which is mouse with text input as an option that requires cancellation of the datepicker in question. Subsequent tabbing would move to the next field as opposed to simply killing the datepicker. If you could point me in the right direction, or if you would simply like to theorize the best way to do this, feel free to remark on the post. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery UI" group.
