Zebra_DatePicker, version 1.3 now available
Here’s what’s new in version 1.3:
- added a new property called “start_date” that can be used to specify a default starting date for the date picker, without having to set this value as the default value in the field the date picker is attached to; thanks to Phill;
- the date picker will now feature a button for clearing a previously selected date; this means that if the input the date picker is attached to is empty, and the user selects a date for the first time, this button will not be visible; once the user picked a date and opens the date picker again, this time the button will be visible; this button can be made permanently visible by setting the newly added “always_show_clear” property to TRUE; the caption of the button can be set through the newly added “lang_clear_date” property; thanks to Marc;
- the date picker can now be kept visible all the time by setting the newly added “always_visible” property to a jQuery element that will act as the date picker’s container; thanks to red for suggesting this, and to everybody else for insisting
- fixed a bug where if the calendar icon didn’t have any parents with “position: relative”, it would appear at the very top of the page; thanks to Primoz and nzn;
- fixed a bug where pre-selected years and months were not highlighted if the date format didn’t have days, months and years, but was something particular like “Y-m” or just “Y”;
- fixed a bug where January was never highlighted in the month picker;
