javascript - jQuery Datepicker to Trigger a POST - Stack Overflow

文章数量:1335644

i want to use jquery UI's datepicker to trigger a POST that would then load information from the date picked on the datepicker from my database.

so i guess this is a two-part question

is there a way i can make it so the datepicker date, when selected, just gets passed into a POST, so someone would click on jan 1 2010 and it would automatically go to mysite?date=01012010 or something like that the way it is now the datepicker just updates a text box with the date, so upon clicking on jan 1 2010, the text box is populated with 01-01-2010

which brings me to part 2 if there is no way to do what i asked in part 1, is there a method that triggers an event on the text box being updated, that way i could just do

onTextUpdate{

redirect to - mysite?date=$whateverIsInTextBox

}

or something like that

please let me know if you have any solutions or ideas to do this, thanks a lot

• Please please don't do this. I really hate it when people do a post back on something as fiddly as a datepicker. – Iain Holder Commented Jun 18, 2009 at 19:01
• 1 @lainMH is correct is is not from good usability perspective to post on a data select, what if the user chose a wrong date and wishes to change it – Rony Commented Jun 18, 2009 at 19:10

You could do something like this if you don't want to use ajax:

$("#datepicker").datepicker({

    onSelect: function(date, instance) {
            window.location = "www.example./?date="+date;
    }
});

And if you do:

$("#datepicker").datepicker({

    onSelect: function(date, instance) {

        $.ajax
        ({
            type: "GET",
            url: "www.example.",
            data: "date="+date,
            success: function(result)
            {
               //do something
            }
       });  
    }
});

use the OnSelect event of the date picker

$('id').datepicker({
   onSelect: function(dateText, ins) { ... }
});

you can try other events of the datepicker control based on your requirement

There are a number of events attached to the jQuery datepicker widget; onSelect should cover point #1 above:

$('.selector').datepicker({
   onSelect: function(dateText, inst) { ... }
});

In your case, you can use the $.GET or $.POST functions to pass the data to the server.
