Twitter Bootstrap Datepicker within modal window

Question

I am currently using the Twitter Bootstrap framework, and when using the modal windows I cannot get over js elements to work like datepicker or validation, though chosen and

Answer 1

$('#effective_to').datepicker({
    dateFormat: "dd-mm-yyyy",
    changeMonth: true,
    changeYear: true,
    beforeShow: function() { 
        $('#ui-datepicker-div').addClass('datepicker');
    }
});

CSS

.datepicker {
    z-index: 100000 !important;
    display: block;
}

This works form me. Even though I called model via ajax

Answer 2

Wrap your datapicker JavaScript code inside

function pageLoad() {}

Answer 3

I use:

body.modal-open .datepicker {
    z-index: 1200 !important;
}

This way: if the modal isn't open, and you want the datepicker to be at the normal z-index (in my case I needed it to be under the menu drop-down, which has a z-index of 1000), it works.

If the modal is open, the datepicker needs to be over the modal z-index (1040 or 1050), so use the body.modal-open selector.

I'm using Bootstrap 3.1.1

Answer 4

This solutions worked perfectly for me to render the datepicker on top of bootstrap modal.

HTML

<br/>
<div class="wrapper">
Some content goes here<br />
Some more content.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-4">

<!-- padding for jsfiddle -->
<div class="input-group date" id="dtp">
<input type="text" class="form-control" />  
<span class="input-group-addon">
  <span class="glyphicon-calendar glyphicon"></span>
</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Javascript

$('#dtp').datetimepicker({
format: 'MMM D, YYYY',
widgetParent: 'body'});


$('#dtp').on('dp.show', function() {
      var datepicker = $('body').find('.bootstrap-datetimepicker-widget:last');
      if (datepicker.hasClass('bottom')) {
        var top = $(this).offset().top + $(this).outerHeight();
        var left = $(this).offset().left;
        datepicker.css({
          'top': top + 'px',
          'bottom': 'auto',
          'left': left + 'px'
        });
      }
      else if (datepicker.hasClass('top')) {
        var top = $(this).offset().top - datepicker.outerHeight();
        var left = $(this).offset().left;
        datepicker.css({
          'top': top + 'px',
          'bottom': 'auto',
          'left': left + 'px'
        });
      }
    });

CSS

.wrapper {
height: 100px;
overflow: auto;}
body {
position: relative;
}

Answer 5

According to http://www.daterangepicker.com/ (options)

$('#dispatch_modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
     $('input:text:visible:first').focus();
     // prepare datepicker
     $('.form_datepicker').daterangepicker({
          singleDatePicker: true,
          showDropdowns: true,
          parentEl: '#dispatch_modal'   
     });
});

`

parentEl solved my problem...

Answer 6

for me it only worked with !important in css

.datepicker {z-index: 1151 !important;}
