The datepicker displays a specified date or the current date in the representation of the current locale. It provides an integrated calendar to conveniently modify the date.

date : string, get/set

The date is set or returned in a format as specified by the format attribute (see below). By default (if the date is not set, or if it is set to the empty string), the datepicker displays the current date.

format : string, get/set

The format used to set or get the date. The format string is parsed for special letters which are replaced by the date components as documented below:

Format	Date Component	Example
yyyy	Year	2022
yy	Year	22
MM	Month in year	04 (April)
M	Month in year	4 (April)
dd	Day in month	01
d	Day in month	1

The default format is dd.MM.yyyy.

Download: webdlg2-datepicker.240705.tgz

Installation (as superuser):

cd /directory/in/web/server/document/hierarchy
tar xzf /path/to/webdlg2-datepicker.240705.tgz

Windows

Download: webdlg2-datepicker.240705.zip

Please unpack the webdlg2-datepicker.240705.zip contents into the web server document hierarchy.

The datepicker plugin example consists of the files:

webdlg-datepicker.js (JavaScript code)

webdlg-datepicker.min.js (JavaScript code, minified)

webdlg-datepicker.map (JavaScript source map)

webdlg-datepicker.css (CSS rules)

webdlg-datepicker.min.css (CSS rules, minified)

To use the plugin in your WEBDLG2 applications, configure an URI in the eloqwebd2.uri file for the directory containing the plugin files, for example:

[/plugin]
Path = /directory/in/web/server/document/hierarchy

This configuration associates the /plugin URI with the plugin directory in the file system. Now the application can be configured to load the plugin by setting PluginURL as shown below:

PluginURL = /plugin/webdlg-datepicker.min.js
PluginURL = /plugin/webdlg-datepicker.min.css

Alternatively, the plugin files may be integrated into the HTML documents. This is necessary when using an external web server.

For example:

<script async
        src="/path/to/webdlg-datepicker.min.js">
</script>
<link href="/path/to/webdlg-datepicker.min.css"
      rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

As shown here, using the <script async> attribute is recommended to avoid that the script potentially delays loading the document (1).

An example program is available for download, consisting of the files Datepicker.PROG and Datepicker.dlg.

The grid consists of cells, organized in rows and columns, where a column may be specified as editable or readonly, which affects all cells in the column.

The Editgrid rule value is issued to the program when TAB or ENTER is pressed in an editable cell or when editing a cell has finished.

activeline : integer, get/set

activecolumn : integer, get/set

The 1-based activeline and activecolumn attributes specify the cell which has the keyboard focus.

If zero, no cell has the keyboard focus.

The cx/cy attributes are aliases for activecolumn/activeline (see below).

Adds a new row to the grid.

Columns are separated by the delimiter specified by the delim attribute.

The first column is the row header.

clear : integer or string, set

Deletes all rows in the grid. The argument is ignored.
