I am using a WebDialogWindow to provide a modal dialog box for editing the contents of a WebDataGrid. I'm having some trouble getting and setting the value of a WebDatePicker in that modal dialog.
<script language="javascript">
var currentRow;
function gridTemplateOpening(sender, args)
{
var dialog = $find('<%= cnModalDialog.ClientID %>');
currentRow = args.get_row();
var dateText = currentRow.get_cellByColumnKey("expire_datetime").get_text();
$get("<%=cnTextBox.ClientID%>").value = dateText;
$get("<%=cnWebDatePicker.ClientID%>").value = dateText;
dialog.set_windowState($IG.DialogWindowState.Normal);
}
</script>
In this example cnTextBox is an asp:TextBox control. This control displays the date from column "expire_datetime" just fine. The cnWebDatePicker (a WebDatePicker control) however shows no selected value when the dialog opens. Does it not have a .value property or is that not the correct way to set it's value? Better yet, can you direct me to the CSOM documentation for the WebDatePicker control? I have not been succesful finding it.
My environment is 2010.vol 2 CLR 2.0
Hi,
The WebDatePicker is javascript based control. Any operation with getting setting values, should be done through javascript member methods/variables. To set value the following can be used:
var dp = $find("<%=cnWebDatePicker.ClientID%>");if(!dp) return;// to set value of datepicker, you need Date object, so you may tryvar date = new Date(dateText);dp.set_value(date);// you also may try to use set_text(str),// however, format of dateText should match with format of datePicker.dp.set_text(dateText);To get value, you may use something likealert('value=' + $find("<%=cnWebDatePicker.ClientID%>").get_value());
Hello,
Please, could you explain me how to send a value (date) from a textBox to webdatepicker?
Thanks
I assume that you ask how to set value to datepicker on client. Because on server it should be obvious: take Text property of TextBox, convert it to DateTime and set Value property of WebDatePicker. On client you may use set_value() method or set_text(). The set_value(Date) is most reliable, because set_text(string) depends on format and may fail. Below are 2 examples for both cases:
<script type="text/javascript">function setText(){ var input = $get('<%=TextBox1.ClientID%>'); var dp = $find('<%=WebDatePicker1.ClientID%>');// dp.set_value(input.value); dp.set_text(input.value);}function setDate(){ var input = $get('<%=TextBox2.ClientID%>'); var dp = $find('<%=WebDatePicker1.ClientID%>'); var fields = input.value.split('-'); if(fields.length != 3) return; var date = new Date(parseInt(fields[0], 10), parseInt(fields[1] - 1, 10), parseInt(fields[2], 10)); dp.set_value(date);}</script><ig:WebDatePicker ID="WebDatePicker1" runat="server"></ig:WebDatePicker><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text="01/03/2010"></asp:TextBox><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" Text="2009-8-20"></asp:TextBox><input type="button" value="Set text from 1" onclick="setText()" /><input type="button" value="Set date from 2" onclick="setDate()" />

Hi Bubhash,
In case of WebDateChooser, you may use global igdrp_getComboById or ig$ methods to get reference to webdatechooser object, and use get/setValue methods to get/set value of WebDateChooser. Below are examples:
<igsch:WebDateChooser ID="WebDateChooser1" runat="server"></igsch:WebDateChooser><input type="button" value="clear" onclick="igdrp_getComboById('WebDateChooser1').setValue(null)" /><input type="button" value="get" onclick="alert('value:' + ig$('WebDateChooser1').getValue())" /><input type="button" value="set" onclick="ig$('WebDateChooser1').setValue(new Date(1955, 1, 19))" />
Hi I am using WebDateChooser , I want to clear the control when i click the button on client click using javascript.
Please reply needfull.
Thanks so much Viktor that corrected the problem!
