P:calendar date validations

[sudheer]

Hi,

we can enter the date from date picker(p:calendar) and at the same time manually from inputbox. I'am going to do validations when user enters manually without using P:calendar. I can see readOnlyInputText attribute from p:calendar but its not going to work for me and i can do both read and write at that time.

If readOnlyInputText="true" works smoothly then i don't need to use lot of validations for user manual Date entry.



Environment:

Primefaces 3.3
WAS7.0
JSF2.0

Thanks

Won't comment about 3.3 because I haven't used it yet and it is still prerelease but I would suggest you use the calender in inline mode and avoid the pain called textbox date entry entirely.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

I don't think this issue of readOnlyInputText="true" with the prerelease of PF 3.3(But surely i will try with PF3.2 once ) and i shouldn't use mode="inline" because of space constraint.I need to prevent manullay entry of date and i got the following link regarding this issue.

As per the comments from that link pattern="...." showing the difference.If readOnlyInputText ="true" works then problem will solve
