Summary
Tag name:
<tr:chooseDate>
UIComponent class:
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component.core.input.CoreChooseDate
Component type:
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.CoreChooseDate
The chooseDate component is used in conjunction with a
selectInputDate to allow the user to quickly select a date value without
having to navigate to a secondary window. The chooseDate is
typically used for tasks where selecting a date value is a critical
part of the task flow. Instead of requiring the user to
select the date from a secondary window, a chooseDate can be
displayed inline in the page contents. Users can then select
a date directly within the chooseDate, which will cause the
currently focused selectInputDate to be updated with the selected
date.
In order to indicate that a particular selectInputDate should be updated in response to chooseDate selection changes, the the selectInputDate's "chooseId" attribute must be set to the id of the associated chooseDate component.
The chooseDate component uses partial page rendering to update itself as the user navigates between months. In environments where partial page rendering is not supported, the chooseDate component will not be rendered. Instead, the selectInputDate may provide access to a date picker in a secondary window to facilitate date selection.
Example(s):
<tr:inputDate chooseId="cd1"/> <tr:chooseDate id="cd1" minValue="2004-07-01" maxValue="2014-12-31"/>
Events
Type | Phases | Description |
---|---|---|
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent | Invoke Application, Apply Request Values |
Event delivered to describe an attribute change. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing. |
Attributes
Name | Type | Supports EL? | Description |
---|---|---|---|
attributeChangeListener | javax.el.MethodExpression | Only EL | a method reference to an attribute change listener. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing. |
binding | org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component. |
Only EL | an EL reference that will store the component instance on a bean. This can be used to give programmatic access to a component from a backing bean, or to move creation of the component to a backing bean. |
id | String | No | the identifier for the component. The identifier
must follow a subset of the syntax allowed in HTML:
|
inlineStyle | String | Yes | the CSS styles to use for this component. |
maxValue | java.util.Date | Yes | The maximum value allowed for the Date value. When set to a fixed value on a tag, this will be parsed as an ISO 8601 date. ISO 8601 dates are of the form "yyyy-MM-dd" (for example: 2002-02-15). All other uses require java.util.Date objects. When binding to Date objects, it is advised to create the Date object with maximum value for any date-time components that aren't displayed (usually hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds) to allow the largest range of values to be accepted. |
minValue | java.util.Date | Yes | The minimum value allowed for the Date value. When set to a fixed value on a tag, this will be parsed as an ISO 8601 date. ISO 8601 dates are of the form "yyyy-MM-dd" (for example: 2002-02-15). All other uses require java.util.Date objects. When binding to Date objects, it is advised to create the Date object with zeroed-out values for any date-time components that aren't displayed (usually hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds) to allow the largest range of values to be accepted. |
onclick | String | Yes | an onclick Javascript handler. |
ondblclick | String | Yes | an ondblclick Javascript handler. |
onkeydown | String | Yes | an onkeydown Javascript handler. |
onkeypress | String | Yes | an onkeypress Javascript handler. |
onkeyup | String | Yes | an onkeyup Javascript handler. |
onmousedown | String | Yes | an onmousedown Javascript handler. |
onmousemove | String | Yes | an onmousemove Javascript handler. |
onmouseout | String | Yes | an onmouseout Javascript handler. |
onmouseover | String | Yes | an onmouseover Javascript handler. |
onmouseup | String | Yes | an onmouseup Javascript handler. |
partialTriggers | String[] | Yes |
the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update.
This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too. Separate multiple triggers with a space. e.g., partialTriggers="cmp1 cmp2" Identifiers must account for NamingContainers. You can use a single colon to start the search from the root, or use multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainer. For example, "::" will pop out of this component's naming container (it pops out of itself if it is a naming container), ":::" will pop out of two naming containers, etc. The search for the partialTrigger begins from there. e.g., partialTriggers=":::commandButton1" the search begins for the component with id = commandButton1 after popping out of two naming containers relative to this component. To go into naming containers, you separate the naming containers with ':', e.g.,partialTriggers= "nc1:nc2:nc3:componentId". |
rendered | boolean | Yes | whether the component is rendered. When set to false, no output will be delivered for this component (the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client). |
shortDesc | String | Yes | The short description of the component. This text is commonly used by user agents to display tooltip help text. |
styleClass | String | Yes | a CSS style class to use for this component. |
