Date Form Element for Zend Framework Version 1.1.12

Question

Is there anything that I can use for Zend Framework version 1.1.12 that would be equivalent to the Date Form Element in Zend Framework version 2?

I can't find any homebrewed examples on the internet. Maybe someone knows someone that implemented this?

Answer 1

http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.form.standardElements.html show Zend Freamwork 1 standard elements. It does not provide a standard form element for date.

You have the following options:

1. Use Zend_Form_Element_Text field with date validation.
2. Make 3 drop downs for dd-mm-yyyy using Zend_Form_Element_Select elements.
3. Use ZendX_JQuery Form Elements and Decorators and make datepicker.
