Doubts with calendars

Post by fko » Wed Jul 02, 2014 10:06 am

Hi,

I have some forms to fill from the user, and in some of them the data to fill are dates...
So my idea is to make appear one calendar to choose one date or to choose one period ( so, mark some days at the same time...To know the beginning and end day)...

in one post Klaus attached this calendar ("CalandarPopUp")...This one has the option to appear / disappear as i want...
But there is no option to choose one "period" in place of one "single date"...
And another important thing is to can call one comand to get the values and don't have them only in one field...

Does exists already something like this? or quite like this and can change the code?
It is a little bit more than one month that i am using LiveCode...And i don't think i am able to create my own calendar, but maybe i can adapt to my necessities a little bit one calendar that already exists...

Regads,
fko

Hi.

I have used "CalendarPane" from Rotunda. Works fine. There are certainly others...

Hi Craig,

Thanks for your answer...

I tried with CalendarPane, but i had some problems with it...:-(
I had many errors with the selected date, with the unlockredraw, and i don't remember what else...
So i couldn't really test this calendar, even if i heared good things about it...:-(

I downloaded for the website of 'Rotunda' but it is not working...:-(

As i didn't test it i don't know how it works...

But do you think that the 'three things i am asking for' are in CalendarPane?
So the PopUp, the option to choose one period and not one precise date, and finally to have one method to get these values and not see them only in one field?

regards,
fko

Hi,

Has someone one version of "CalendarPane" that is working well?

Is it posible to do these next things with "CalendarPane"?

1.- one PopUp calendar
2.- Possibility to choose one period and not one precise date=?
3.- Get the date value by one method?

regards,
fko
