Hi,

When I create a date kind exposed filter, the only choice I have is a select kind of filter, which I do not like. Is it possible, and how, to use a jquery calendar instead, as in CCK date fields?

The goal would be to be bale to type the date into a text field, or to use the calendar to pickup the date.

Thanks

This would require some jquery calendar module to provide some kind of integration to make this simple and easy. I'm not familiar with what's available anymore, so it would take someone who is familiar and willing to help out ot make this happen.

Perhaps a good start would be to look how the jquery integration is done with cck fields, so we can do the same with views.

Maybe we can use the JQuery UI calendar when Drupal 7 is released. For now, changing version.

Date module already has an option to expose a calendar to select any date of the site.

Download Date.
Enable Date, and Date Calendar modules.

  • Add a date filter.
  • Select the field to filter. Date will present all date fields that can be filtered.
  • Date form type: Popup
  • Expose the filter.

I'm marking this issue as a fixed feature request. I'm think that date calendar is a solid way to get an exposed calendar and there is no reason to duplicate this behaviour into views.

Maybe I don t get you right but what we d like is a fixed calendar (no popup) and jquery, not a page call. Especially the jquery factor is important, in my case the view is inside a qtab so I can t call a page and use arguments.

@cimo I don't understand the difference.

Moved to Date issue queue, because views cannot do anything here.

Hallo
the difference is that
-I d like a calendar as in the calendar module, not a pop-up and without the need to select and push enter, one should be able to click on a date and get the result filtered (as in the pop-up)
-Another deal is that it should be java based (as in the pop-up) and not making a page call (as in the calendar module)

See the tag-like selection on this site

vvvv.org

There is some nifty javascript code there.
I still think a nice calendar as jquery exposed filter is really missing on the Date-Calendar modules.

We're sorry but the D6 release of Date module is no longer being supported. You are encouraged to update to Drupal 7 or 8, or direct questions to Drupal Answers.
