S2: datetimepicker and multiple date formats
I have this code:
<s:datetimepicker id="selectedDate"
name="selectedDate"
displayWeeks="5"
displayFormat= "MM-dd-yyyy"
value="%{userDetailsBean.selectDateString}"/>
It works fine if the user uses the drop-down or types
in a date in just the right format. However, we would
like the following to work better:
user input actual value desired
value
---------- ------------
-------------
06-12-07 NaN-NaN-0NaN 06-12-2007
06/13/2007 06-12-2007 (refused change) 06-13-2007
06 13 2007 06-12-2007 (refused change) 06-13-2007
etc.
Basically, I would like to allow multiple date formats
in order to make life easier for my users.
Can I intercept the user input somehow before it goes
to the validation and fix it up?
Thanks,
Scott

Nope. I'm not so sure that's a good idea as you wouldn't have any way to
parse that date on the server (without knowing the right format).
Warning! bad advise ahead: You can always do something crazy like:
dojo.widget.byId("dp").setValue = function(dateObj) {
};
and then do your thing there, or extend StrusDatePicker widget, which I
would strongly advise not to :)

Scott,
Struts 2 automatically uses de correct locale information based in the
host's information.
You don't have to worry about it, unless you wan't to force it.
The best thing to do is to hope that users will configure correctly
their desktops so Struts can use that information correctly.
I hope this could help you
