I just upgraded an ASP.Net MVC application to MVC-4. The field editor for inputs based on DateTime values now include\'s the HTML-5 type="date"
attrib
If you are dealing with a table and one of the dates happens to be null, you can code it like this:
@{
if (Model.SomeCollection[i].date_due == null)
{
<td><input type='date' id="@("dd" + i)" name="dd" /></td>
}
else
{
<td><input type='date' value="@Model.SomeCollection[i].date_due.Value.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")" id="@("dd" + i)" name="dd" /></td>
}
}
Had the same problem. A colleague solved this with jQuery.Globalize.
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.globalize/globalize.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.globalize/cultures/globalize.culture.nl.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var lang = 'nl';
$(function () {
Globalize.culture(lang);
});
// fixing a weird validation issue with dates (nl date notation) and Google Chrome
$.validator.methods.date = function(value, element) {
var d = Globalize.parseDate(value);
return this.optional(element) || !/Invalid|NaN/.test(d);
};
</script>
I am using jQuery Datepicker for selecting the date.
I was having the same problem, with a value like 2016-08-8, then I solved adding a zero to have two digits days, and it works. Tested in chrome, firefox, and Edge
today:function(){
var today = new Date();
var d = (today.getDate() < 10 ? '0' : '' )+ today.getDate();
var m = ((today.getMonth() + 1) < 10 ? '0' :'') + (today.getMonth() + 1);
var y = today.getFullYear();
var x = String(y+"-"+m+"-"+d);
return x;
}
In chrome to set the value you need to do YYYY-MM-DD
i guess because this worked : http://jsfiddle.net/HudMe/6/
So to make it work you need to set the date as 2012-10-01
I have same problem and i found solution which is given below with full datepicker using simple HTML,Javascript and CSS. In this code i prepare formate like dd/mm/yyyy but you can work any.
HTML Code:
<body>
<input type="date" id="dt" onchange="mydate1();" hidden/>
<input type="text" id="ndt" onclick="mydate();" hidden />
<input type="button" Value="Date" onclick="mydate();" />
</body>
CSS Code:
#dt{text-indent: -500px;height:25px; width:200px;}
Javascript Code :
function mydate()
{
//alert("");
document.getElementById("dt").hidden=false;
document.getElementById("ndt").hidden=true;
}
function mydate1()
{
d=new Date(document.getElementById("dt").value);
dt=d.getDate();
mn=d.getMonth();
mn++;
yy=d.getFullYear();
document.getElementById("ndt").value=dt+"/"+mn+"/"+yy
document.getElementById("ndt").hidden=false;
document.getElementById("dt").hidden=true;
}
Output:
