Birthday calendar format

[Kevin Gebel, modificado 12 Anos atrás.]

Hello

I have created a hook for the create account page. After a couple of hours, I am still not able to customize the format of the birthday datepicker :
The birthday field is displayed to the following format : month / day / year + datepicker.
I'd like to obtain this format : day / month / year + datepicker.

Has anyone got an idea ?
Thanks
Kevin

You may want to create hook for the following jsp

portal-web\docroot\html\taglib\ui\input_date\page.jsp

Just change the order of the includes

<c:choose>
				<c:when test="<%= monthAndYearParam.equals(namespace) %>">

					&lt;%
					int[] monthIds = CalendarUtil.getMonthIds();
					String[] months = CalendarUtil.getMonths(locale);
					%&gt;

					&lt;%@ include file="select_month.jspf" %&gt;
				</c:when>
			</c:choose>

			&lt;%@ include file="select_day.jspf" %&gt;

			&lt;%@ include file="select_year.jspf" %&gt;

Hi Udaya,

you have two possible ways to solve this. Frist you can set the year input field as hidden. The drawback is that users with some knowledge and firebug can "hack" it and change the value. The other solution would be to modify the save method so that if the year is null then use the year previously entered.

hi Oliver,
Actually my problem is none of the link on the user's details page is linkable after removing the lines from page.jsp.
i dont know what is the link between the birthday year and this fields.
if i tried to change the prefix field, we will get the "modified" text on right side. that is not showing up.
i have attached my page with this for ur reference


Thanks,

hi,
Finally i removed the year by making the select tag as "hidden" in selet_year.jspf from the path \html\taglib\ui\input_date\.

<select style= "visibility:hidden;" <%= disabled ? "disabled=\"disabled\"" : "" %> id="<%= yearParam %>" name="<%= yearParam %>">

can suggest me if any other way of doing this...............



Thanks

Hi Udaya,

if the links on the right aren't clickable any more -after you removed the year field- I think this could be a javascript issue. Can you inspect this via firebug and check if you get any js errors? If so try to solve them so you can use your solution with the removed year field.

Another css hack would be to use "display: none;" if no js errors are thrown.

Looking at the taglib code I think you can disable the year selection completly. All you have to do is to add the "disabled=true" parameter to the jsp where the input date taglib is called.
