Adding onchange to date type field causes datepicker to disappear.

QuestionsAdding onchange to date type field causes datepicker to disappear.
Jim asked 4 years ago

When I try to add a onchange event to a date field (vs a drop down) so
that  when  user  selects  different date from datepicker icon it then
effects  another  field  drop down, it works but I lose the datepicker
functionality  (the  small  calendar  icon  disappears).   I  have  to
manually select a date then by typing in date manually into date field
and  it works great in that it refreshes/updates the drop down for the
other  field,  but  I  would  like to retain the datepicker icon/popup
calendar functionality.
Thoughts?
Here is my example code for the date field, again it works great but I
lose  datepicker popup calendar icon/functionality from the date field
now, but I can manually enter date and onchange works still:
———
$col = array();
$col[“title”] = “Date”;
$col[“name”] = “s_date”;
$col[“width”] = “75”;
$col[“formatter”] = “date”;
$col[“editable”] = true; // this column is editable
$col[“editoptions”] = array(
20, “defaultValue” => date(“Y-m-d”),
array(    “sql”=>
“select  the_id  as  k,  the_name  as  v  from
customers where the_date = ‘{s_date}'”,
“update_field” => “s_account_id” ));
$cols[] = $col;
———

Hello,

This is not supported now in datepicker. I tested this code in latest version and it freezes up. Don’t know how it is working on your side. If you can tell your version, i can try regenerating / updating code.

Anything that can be done here for this datepicker issue when onchange is used with it?

Hi Jim,

Apologies for the delay in updating back.

Issue is i am unable to get this behavior on latest 2.6.3 build. I need to compare both versions first and see what is limiting it and update you back after merging / testing your exact need.

It may take some time and ticket will remain open for updates.

You can connect add / edit dialog afterShowForm event and reconnect datepicker to that field.

$opt[“add_options”][“afterShowForm”] = “function(){ link_date_picker($(‘#invdate’),’yy-mm-dd’); }”;
$opt[“edit_options”][“afterShowForm”] = “function(){ link_date_picker($(‘#invdate’),’yy-mm-dd’); }”;
$g->set_options($opt);

Here invdate is field name.
