TextField for Dates

Databases
1

Does anyone have a TextField for Dates? I’m really looking for a WebTextField for Dates though, but I could adapt it.

I’d like it to:

  • Validate the Date Entered.
  • Have a property or something to make easy access to getting or setting it as an SQLDate, but show as a localized date.

If not, I’ll create one and share it.

Look in the WebSDK folder. There’s an example that lets you select a date from a calendar.

Thank you Greg.

I created a WebTextFieldForDate class that’s subclassed from WebTextFieldDate. It has a method to init itself from a SQLDate, will check for a valid date or revert, and shows a four digit year.

I’m kinda scared sharing this, but I’d LOVE some feedback to make it better and tight.
