Good day!
I am trying to use jquery for the first time. And i cannot make it work. My code is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" media="screen" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker();
});
</script>
<div class="demo">
<p>Date: <input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>
</div><!-- End demo -->
</body>
</HTML>
But the datepicker is not working.. What should i do to make it work? Thank you.
This question is related to
jquery
jquery-ui
jquery-ui-datepicker
If jQuery UI datepicker isn't working but it used to work on similar DOM earlier, try removing all the classes and try binding it to just a simple input with its id. In my case a class was interfering with it and preventing the date picker to appear.
after that all html we want to write these lines of code
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.11/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.14/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" type="text/css" media="all">
<script>
$('#date').datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
showButtonPanel: true,
yearRange: "-100:+0",
dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy'
});
</script>
try adjusting the order in which your script runs. Place the script tag below the element it is trying to affect. Or leave it up at the top and wrap it in a $(document).ready()
EDIT:
and include the right file.
Datepicker is not part of jQuery. You have to get jQuery UI to use the datepicker.
The problem is you are not linking to the jQuery UI library (which is where datepicker resides):
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" media="screen" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.9/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="demo">
<p>Date: <input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>
</div><!-- End demo -->
</body>
</HTML>
For me.. the problem was that the anchor needs a title, and that was missing!
I was stuck on an issue where datepicker() appeared to be doing nothing. It turned out that the issue was that the input was inside a Bootstrap "input-group" div. Simply taking the input out of the input-group resolved the issue.
