Date and Time controls

Classic Servoy
1

I am trying to find the best way to alter a datetime field with seperate date and time elements. Not so simple since altering to seperate elements with the same dataprovider leaves me with rubbish. That is, when I change the time the date gets screwed and the other way around. Not so strange BTW or is there another way?

What I am looking for are nice controls like the one on the screendump. Or, if that is not possible, it would be nice if I could replace the built in calendar with my own calendar form. Would that be possible?

Or are there some nice beans?

Thanks!!!

You can create separate methods for pushing days, hours, minutes etc.

example:
var javascriptDate = columnInDatabaseDate //set javascript variable with database content
javascriptDate.setHours( javascriptDate.getHours() + 1 ) //increase with one hour
columnInDatabaseDate = javascriptDate
Check out the other date functions in the JSLib inside your method editor.

btw:
I’m working on a default calendar that generates year/month/week/day view in HTML together with data from your database.
It consists of a couple of global scripts that can easily be copy pasted into your own solution. de selected date becomes available for use as key to any table you want (eg: actions/appointments etc.)
