Im using Pikaday as a datepicker because JQuery Datepicker is having conflict with Prototype Library.
A few issues here.
Here is the sample code
<input type="text" id="datepicker">
<script src="pikaday.js"></script>
<script>
var picker = new Pikaday(
{
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
field: document.getElementById('datepicker'),
firstDay: 1,
minDate: new Date('2000-01-01'),
maxDate: new Date('2020-12-31'),
yearRange: [2000,2020]
});
</script>
I guess you're looking for a way to have pikaday work together for a date range type of thing and then manipulate the last one according to the date you selected in the first on? ... I realize this is a bit late but perhaps someone else is interested in an answer:
Pikaday does not offer anything inhouse here but I was able to work around this by destroying the instance and creating it again when a day has been picked in the "from" picker.
HTML:
From: <input type="text" name="from" id="from">
To: <span id="toField"><input type="text" name="to" id="to"></span>
Javascript:
function dateRange() { //destroy to field and init with new param
var picker = new Pikaday({ field: document.getElementById("from") });
if(picker.toString()) {
$("#to").pikaday('destroy');
$("#to").remove();
$("#toField").html('<input type="text" name="to" id="to">');
$("#to").pikaday({ //should have the same param as the original init
format: "YYYY-M-DD",
minDate: moment(picker.toString(), "YYYY-MM-DD").toDate()
});
}
}
$(function() { //pikaday init
$("#from").pikaday({
format: "YYYY-MM-DD", //adjust to your liking
minDate: moment().subtract({days: 1}).toDate()
});
$("#to").pikaday({
format: "YYYY-MM-DD",
minDate: moment().subtract({days: 1}).toDate()
});
});
PS: don't forget to include your jquery, pickaday and moment js files...
Hope it helps
