---------------------------------------

             Summary: Changes for <tc:date>
                 Key: TOBAGO-2071
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOBAGO-2071
             Project: MyFaces Tobago
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Core, Themes
            Reporter: Udo Schnurpfeil
            Assignee: Udo Schnurpfeil


h3. Changes

We need some changes to the <tc:date> component.
 * Implement "more like HTML"
 * No longer support for <f:dateTiimeConverter>

h3. Explanation

The Input of date and time are nomally supported by a JavaScript widget, or by the browser. The browser support was going better and better in the last time (even in mobile devices).

So, the value "on the wire" will be a machine readable ISO format, not a localized value. The localization will happen in the browser.
h3. Exclusion

for <tc:in> the <f:dateTimeConverter> will work, but without widget support.
h3. Type

There will be an attribute "type" = \{ "date" | "time" | "datetime-local" | "month" | "week" }

(Month  and week may be supported in later versions)
h3. Browser vs Widget

Most browsers these days supporting the types "date" and "time". Firefox doesn't support "datetime-local". So, it might be a solution, to use only browser featues. In case of Firefox with "datetime-local", the field may be splitted into 2 fields with type "date" and "time".

If everything works fine, we may drop TOBAGO-2036.
