Actually, J 1.5 includes a pop-up calendar for form fields - this one line of code can wipe out all that custom calendar code for calendar fields:
echo JHTML::_('calendar', \"\", $row->name, txt.$row->name);

I just can't figure out how to get it so it positions properly. I've put it into the case statement for calendar but the fields are appearing at the top of the form, not next to their labels.

Here is what I have done with forme.html.php:...

So there is no way to make the calendar field in the 1.5 component a pop-up calendar?

Is it possible to pass a value into a form via the URL string.

I'm using jcal pro for an event calendar and would simply like to create a link on the calender event page that take someone to the register for the event page. There are too many event's to create a separate form for every event so what I would like to do is simply pass the value for a field into the form. Perhaps by creating a hidden field {event}.

This way I could create a simple URL link on the event page that takes them to...

While it would be nice to have a calendar pop up as part of RSfrom it's not to hard to install a third party component. I found this one which was fairly easy to install www.softcomplex.com/products/tigra_calendar/

Hell yksur

Did you find a solution? Unfortunately for some reason the code that Alex supplied is not working for me at all. Yet looking at it, it should work... I have found a get around by hacking the forme.html.php file. It will give you dd mm yy date format. Note: there is no guarantee as it's not fully tested, but maybe this will work for you. I'll post it if you're interested?

Hi gardar

I've mentioned this in another post as I can't get this work either. I'm surprised that more people haven't wanted to change date format. Or they found a get around.
My only other theory is that they live in countries where the system date in already as they want i.e. M/d/y. But there are some clever guys here, so perhaps we'll find a solution.

Maybe you should ask support?

This is not working for me.
I have a form called 'prenotazione' (id 1) and 2 calendar id 'Arrivo' and 'Partenza'.

I tried to change everything into above code but nothing.
My emails come always in m/d/y and not d/m/y.

Alex can you help?

Thanks in advance.

First post, hello to all

I need to change to my locale these labels (January, February, etc) , which file/s i need to modify?

Thanks

Cheers

Ditto!!

I'm having the same problem. I guess this is not happening to those who live in countries where the default date is m/d/Y, but in Europe this is (always??) in the day/month/year format.

The good news is that I know Alex is busy working on this problem, so I hope he can fix this for us. Thanks in advance, Alex

I currently have a \&quot;from date\&quot; and a \&quot;to date\&quot; setup in the form using the calendar.
The syntax i have used for the default fields is dd/M/y so i should be getting a result of eg. today 15/Feb/2008, however i am still only getting the default 2/15/2008.
Does anyone else have this problem? any ideas why this happens?

Hello

First of all congrats on this excellent component. Just bought it and thumbup for the team here.

My suggestion is an option to when i need an calendar field.
then not showing the whole calendar on the form but a small link or button
and when i click on that,. then the calendar must come up.....

Thats all

keep it up here
