how to add a jqueryui datepicker to an input field in the cp
Development and Programming
I’m creating a new report type for the nsm reports add on
I want to be able to filter channel entries by a date range
I have the input fields set, but is there a way to add a datepicker to them
I was thinking there must be something built into the cp already
I am in the process of trying to learn all of this as well but Content_publish::entry_form() in system/expressionengine/controllers/cp/content_publish.php should give you a good idea how to load jquery ui libraries and custom javascript files from your themes directory.
Hope that helps.
thanks, I’m going to research this further and will try to post back with my solution later
for posterity, this is the code I used to add the datepicker JS
thanks to the guys at EE Garage guys for supplying it
