Need to use timepicker with "time" database field types (not datetime)

QuestionsNeed to use timepicker with "time" database field types (not datetime)
Melde asked 10 years ago

Greetings,

I have the premium paid version of this excellent phpgrid.

I have several database fields that are 'time' only, not datetime.

I need to be able to integrate the timepicker with these fields. I tried something like this:

$col["formatter"] = "time";
$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'H:i:s',"newformat"=>'H:i:s A',"opts" => array("timeOnly" => true, "timeFormat"=>"hh:mm tt"));

But the timepicker does not show and the fields are not editable.

How can I go about making 'time' fields work with the timepicker?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Here you go: demos/integration/timepicker.php

# to make it date time
$col["formatter"] = "datetime";

# opts array can have these options: http://trentrichardson.com/examples/timepicker/#tp-options
$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'Y-m-d H:i:s',"newformat"=>'H:i:s A',"opts" => array("timeOnly" => true, "timeFormat"=>"hh:mm:ss tt"));

I put that code, and can see the timepicker, but when I update the fields i always get 00:00:00 (but they are OK on database)

What field type should I use in the database???

Try this:

$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'H:i:s',"newformat"=>'H:i:s',"opts" => array("timeOnly" => true));

The newformat does not have AM/PM option and it's 24hour time selection.

how do i display time as 12 hour time slection.

displays as:
07/14/2015 13:41:33PM

need to display as:
07/14/2015 01:41:33PM

my code:
col["formatter"] = "datetime";
$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'Y-m-d H:i:s',"newformat"=>'m/d/Y H:i:s A',"opts" => array("timeOnly" => FALSE, "timeFormat"=>"hh:mm:ss tt"));

You can set:

$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'Y-m-d H:i:s',"newformat"=>'M d Y h:i A',"opts" => array( ));

newformat: small h, and A will show 12 hour with AM/PM option

I had the same issue and the snippet below fixed everything for me EXCEPT how do I not display the seconds? We only want to input and display hours:minutes. Like 23:34 or 09:15

$col["formatoptions"] = array("srcformat"=>'H:i:s',"newformat"=>'H:i:s',"opts" => array("timeOnly" => true));

Change:
"newformat"=>'H:i:s'

to:
"newformat"=>'H:i'
