Calendar Navigation

[vjosullivan]

(Primefaces 2.2)

I have a Calendar set up with yearRange="c-1:c+2". Last year, this year and the next two years.

Initially, the drop down correctly displays the years <2010, 2011, 2012, 2013>. If the user selects a the year 2013 and later decides to change the year again then the drop down displays <2012, 2013, 2014, 2015>. The Calendar always takes the current year as the year being displayed in the Calendar and not the actual year. How to I restrict the drop down to be based around the current year and not the last selected year?

Thanks,
Vince.

Is there any documentation of the syntax for the yearRange attribute of the Calendar component? My copy of the documentation shows only the example "c-10:c+10". For my implementation I've used "c-1:c+2" to get a four year date range. Unfortunately, this date range appears to be based on the year displayed in the calendar component and not on the actual current year. Is there a syntax that uses the actual year?

I think I may have solved the problem. I've change the yearRange attribute to "-1:+2" and this appears to work. The drop down always shows <2010, 2011, 2012, 2013> regardless of the year of the currently selected date.

Unfortunately, I cannot find the yearRange syntax documented in the User Manual, so I cannot be sure that this is a valid solution.
