Customise date picker years
Is there any way of eliminating / overriding some of the dropdown fields for the years in the date picker on a webform?
The dropdown is massive with years starting from 1920 and going to 2099!!
Its overkill for most scenarios, and also would be good to be able to take out old years as they are over.
Here is how you can shorten the "year" list:
-copy the original datepicker javascript here - http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/CatalystScripts/Java_DatePicker.js
-paste it into a new file, say http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/js/DatePicker.js
-search for "1970", you will run across this: for(i=1920;i<=2099;i++)
-change it to for(i=2009;i<=2099;i++) or whatever range you need
-lastly you need to link this modified datepicker js in your page instead of the default one here - http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Mihai/2012-07-23_1515.png

Date Picker with Previous and Next Year Options
Hi All,
I am implementing a date picker in my application which is tied to an attribute of type PA0001-BEGDA. Date Picker as such works fine but navigating to previous year and Next year options are not available. User has to go month by month to different years if they have to navigate.
Is this the normal behavior of the Date Picker or am I missing something else to get the previous and Next year icons in the Date Picker.
Thanks,
Nagarajan.hmm..I tried using the select options and it did give the same date picker with the previous and Next navigation icons...The only problem with the select options is that its a single field which has the range and can accept multiple values too...
I tried to figure out how the date picker that we use in the custom application and the one in Select Options differ but no luck...Does this ring any bell?
Thanks,
Nagarajan. -
Date Picker: Only select Month and Year
Hallo,
I try to configure the Date Picker. For the users it should only be possible to select Month and Year. The column should be automaticly completed with the first day of the select month and a static time (00:00:00).
How can I do this?
SincerlyYou can't do that with a standard date picker. What you could do is to use it and after you change the value in it you modify the value using javascript and ajax similar to what I do in this example:

Date Picker - show specific month of perticaular year
Hi Experts,
I am using sam.m.DatePicker control. By default date picker show current month-year when user open date picker. I want to show specific month of specific year when date picker is open.
for eg: In my app, if student appearing for next year exam(say 2016) then when he click on date picker it should show April of 2016 instead of april of 2015. I don't want to set date by default. Student should select that date manually.
Is it possible to show specific month and year for date picker when it open.
Thanks in advanced.Hi,
you can also give a default date of the first date of that month.
Why you are not using that?
var datePicker = new sap.m.DatePicker({
valueFormat: "yyyy-MM-dd",
displayFormat: "long",
value: "2014-03-26"

Date picker,first day/last day of month
Hi All
i have two items on my page
:p80_from_date
:p80_last_date
both of them are defined as date picker (dd/mm/yyyy)
i want that the form_date will contain allways the first day of the month the the user is picking
example suppose that the user picks in the :p80_from_date : '20/07/2009'
then the date suppose to be '01/07/2009'
if the user picking :p80_last_date '01/08/2009' the date suppose to be '31/08/2009' .
i've tried to do it with computation with no success.
i rather that after the user is picking the date he will see that the default is always the first date.
how shall i do it ?
thanks in advanced
NaamaHello Naama,
Now you are actually raising a new issue of date validation, which should pertains to every date field on your application.
>> the problem is that the function is not returning Boolean
It seems to me that you are mixing Computations and Validations. The first can set the value of an item; the second can raise an application error and include options of using a function that returns Boolean or an error text.
The problem in your specific case is that you need to validate the date prior to using it in your Computation, however the APEX engine fires Computations before Validations. The solution might be to use a PL/SQL process with a firing point of “On Submit – Before Computations and Validations”.
As I mentioned before, date validation should apply to all your application date items. Personally, I’m using a client side validation, fired by an onblur event, to give the user a “fair warning”. The following code matches your date format, and I’m using it in a Right-To-Left application (In the example it includes Hebrew error messages that can be changed to any text in any language you need). This function can deal with a fully formatted date string (e.g. 31/01/2010) or a string of numbers representing the date (e.g. 31012010).
function dateValidation(pThis){
var monthDays = [00,31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31];
var date_len = pThis.value.length;
if (date_len == 0){ // Date field is empty
return true; // or an error alert if date is mandatory
if (date_len == 10) {
pThis.value = pThis.value.substr(0,2)+pThis.value.substr(3,2)+pThis.value.substr(6,4);
else {
if (date_len != 8) {
alert('DD/MM/YYYY התאריך חייב לכלול 8 ספרות במבנה');
pThis.focus();
return false;
var DD = parseInt(trimLead0(pThis.value.substr(0,2)));
if (DD < 1) {
alert('מספר הימים אינו חוקי');
pThis.focus();
return false;
var YYYY = parseInt(pThis.value.substr(4,4));
if (YYYY < 1900 || YYYY > 2050){
alert('טווח השנים המוכר 1900-2050');
pThis.focus();
return false;
var MM = parseInt(trimLead0(pThis.value.substr(2,2)));
// Checking for leap year if MM=02
if (MM == 2) {
var leap = (((YYYY % 4 == 0) && ( (!(YYYY % 100 == 0)) || (YYYY % 400 == 0))) ?1:0);
if ((leap && DD > 29) || (!leap && DD > 28)) {
alert('מספר הימים בפברואר אינו חוקי');
pThis.focus();
return false;
else {
if (DD > monthDays[MM]) {
alert('מספר הימים בחודש זה אינו חוקי');
pThis.focus();
return false;
if (DD < 10) { DD = '0'+DD; }
if (MM < 10) { MM = '0'+MM; }
pThis.value = DD+'/'+MM+'/'+YYYY;
return true;
function trimLead0(str) {
return str.replace(/^0*/g,"");
}Best Practice stipulates that client side validation is not enough and you should use server side validations. In your specific case, if an end user tricked the client side validation he/she deserves to receive a system error message. Still, if you want to prevent it, you need to add some PL/SQL code that validates the input date before you use it in your Computation.

Arie.

Looking for a "free" Date Picker
I'm looking for a free to download and use Date Picker that I can integrate into a small Swing app. Nothing fancy, just a calendar (probably using a JTable) and the ability to select a day of year/month and (possibly) a time of day.
I'm searching google but they're all commercial licenses and I'm simply building this app as a learning process, not for profit.
If there's nothing out there, I'll just stick with my series of combo-boxes :)
Cheers,
ChrisOh yeah, I should point out that I'm not just being lazy. I've spent a while trying to build it myself to no avail. I got as far as displaying the grid :P

How to insert a date picker input text field in a JSF Jsp page
Hi,
I have to develop an application using generic facets, unfortunately I am not supposed to use ADF Faces components given by Oracle.
Now my requirement is, on JSP page an input text field which holds a DATE value is required, it should also have a Date Picker Calendar adjacent to it.
Could you pls shed some light on this issue and help me out.
Thanks

Display in a date picker (calendar)
Hello,
I have a date picker when i press a button, to choose a date from calendar. But some months are displayed with the year too, like November 2009, June 2009, and in this image i uploaded, in case of September only the month is displayed.. i don't know why the year does not appear. And not just in case of September, but December too.
Any help?
Thanks!
I use Developer 2000 (Forms 5)
Edited by: Roger22 on 22.09.2009 09:39Maybe it is just because there is no space enough to display both month and year. Is it possible to increase the width of the calendar box ?
Francois -
Hi all could you please open a ticket for the following bug.
Reproducing the bug very simple.
Apex specification :
version 4.2.1.00.08
I'm not using HTML 5 template but the classic "Blue and Tan" one.
1) Create a page with date picker with mask (DD-MON-YYY HH24.MI).
2) set as default value the SYSDATE using the PLSQL expression (not specifying the mask to_char()).
3) Try to use it and you will see that the year shown is not the correct one but is something like 1911.
I fixed using to_char(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYY HH24.MI') in the PLSQL expression.Hi Zere,
one very important thing to remember when dealing with session state (the value of a page item) is that everything is stored as string.
If you specify SYSDATE as your default expression, then the Oracle database will evaluate that as date data type, but as soon as it's stored in session state, the database will do an implicit data type conversion using the default format mask specified for your database session.
That's why it works when you do the TO_CHAR with the explicit format mask.

How to validate date picker value
Hi,
When a date is entered manually in the date picker .ie 01/03/08 the year 08 is saved as 0008 in the database rather than 2008. How to validate the value in date picker to save the year as 2008 instead of 0008.
VenThe date picker does not always "store" the value for you - you create it with a particular format such as DD-MON-YY and then like any character to date field you need to be careful to use a format mask and to_date. Alternatively, change the format to DD-MON-YYYY.
Are you using this in a query or defined as a page item? Do you have the app on the APEX site?

Date Picker (Application Format Mask) YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI
I am experience what appears to be a bug with the Date Picker (Application Format Mask) that is causing the "DD" portion of the format mask to be interpreted as "CC" (when using a YYYY-MM-DD Application format).
Within "Application Builder", "Edit Attributes" I have defined a "Static Substitution Strings" with the required Substitution String of PICK_DATE_FORMAT_MASK and a Substitution Value of "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI" (without the quotes).
When this is used within the application, and I select a date of "January 15, 2008 @ 23:14", the date picker gives me a date of "2008-01-20 23:14". If I were to change the Year to 1957, the date I get is "1957-01-19 23:14". Note that if the century is 20, no matter what day of the month I pick, I get DD=20. If the century is 19, the day of the month is always 19.
I have also tested this with a format of YYYY-DDD HH24:MI. With this format too, the DDD gets set to the century portion of the year.
DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI format does work, however this is not the format that my end users want to see. They want to see the format as "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI"
If I change the PICK_DATE_FORMAT_MASK to "YY-MM-DD HH24:MI" and pick "Feb 8, 1977" I get "77-02-28" and if I pick "January 9, 1921" I get "21-01-31" which just happens to be the last day of the month in each of those case.
So, something really weird is happen with the "Application Format Mask" Date Picker.
Please note, that because of a known bug (relating to the translation of the Browser Language of "en-ca" to the propery NL_LANG of ENGLISH_CANADA) refer to
HTMLDB - HOWTO Work with Dates
I am executing the following code in my first "On Load - Before Header" and my first "On Submit - After Computations and Validations"
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT=''YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI''' ;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT=''FRENCH''' ;
Could you please investigate this problem.Paul,
Thank you for the feedback and detailed reporting of this issue.
This is a previously identified bug with the computation of the day component of the popup calendar.

Date Picker Alingment is not proper when we open Date in new Tab
We are facing Date Picker Alignment issue with Safari 5 browser on MAC 10.7.3. Our application is developed in Seam framwork ( which includs JSF and EJB). The issue which we are observing as follows-
There are some links on our application JSF page which opens Date in new window. But when we enable option for opening in tab always and click on Date link, Alingment of new tab opened is not proper.
Please suggest the possible action or pointers to work on this issue.

Date Opened in new Tab, Alingment is not proper:
Thanks in advanceHere is more info to describe the issue.
These are the movies sent to the Apple Engineers to show how our
workflow has worked for 7 years until Safari 4 came out.
Again this has caused us to go back to 10.5.8 though we enjoyed some of Snow Leopards improvements.
Have your sound on when listening to safari4 so you can hear the overlaps.

Charts appear in front of date picker, help messages, developer buttons
In Apex 4.1, with Internet Explorer, if we have charts on the form, objects like date-pickers, help text, etc. appear behind the chart. They pop up (or drop down) in front of the chart's region, but behind the chart. So if I have a search criteria region at the top, and a chart region below it, if the chart is displayed, and the user clicks on the date picker, then the date picker pops up, but any portion of it that should overlap with the chart itself is hidden behind the chart, so the users cannot click on a date later in the month.
Also, if there is help text provided for an item in the search criteria region, then the help text pop-up box appears partially or completely behind the chart (though in front of the chart's region.
You can also see this with the developer's buttons at the bottom of the screen - they stay in front of the regions, but behind any chart.
Is there a way to fix this?
I can get around the date picker if I choose the Classic Date Picker, but I don't know how to get around the other items.
Thanks!Maybe it is just because there is no space enough to display both month and year. Is it possible to increase the width of the calendar box ?

Better date picker for ApEx 3.2?
One of my least-liked features in ApEx 3.2 is the poor performance of the date picker popup. It redraws whenever the user changes the month or year, and it takes so long, that I've found most of the time, a user will change both fields in the time it takes for the first one to take effect, so the second change ends up being ignored.
Ideally, I would like to find a drop-in replacement for the built-in date picker that will do everything in JavaScript, within the window, and bonus points for some additional validation options (like min/max date). The date picker in ApEx 4 is actually perfect, I think.
So, my question: 1) Has anybody tried to backport the date picker from ApEx 4 into an ApEx 3.2 application? Can this be done without substantial rewiring of the calling page? 2) If not, can anybody recommend a good replacement for the built-in one in 3.2? Again, my goal is to just replace the JavaScript call on that form element with a different one, and require no other changes to the page.
Thanks,
KeithThanks, Dan -- you mentioned this in another thread, too, and I was just starting to look into whether I could simply drop in this datepicker in place of the one in ApEx. It looks like I can, but if you're verifying that this is the case, then this definitely meets my needs, and I'll eagerly start looking into this.
Still, I think it would be cool if someone backported the one in ApEx 4. That one is so much nicer! :-)

Hi All,
Is it possible to have a date picker for date fields in discoverer viewer?
Regards,
NavHi
There is no code to use here, this is all done by the end user inside the Plus worksheet.
First of all, your Discoverer administrator needs to create two or more lists of values on related items within the folder, for example on the Year, Quarter, Month and Date.
In the end user tool, the user creates a set of conditions on these items presenting the highest level first, for example the year, followed by the next item in the chain, for example the Quarter and so on.
In the sub conditions, for example on the Quarter, the user checks the box which asks whether the values for this item should be based on a previous selection. You then tell Discoverer to use the previous selection thus the list of values for Quarter will be restricted to the year or years selected in the first condition. You simply repeat this exercise for Month and then Day.
Do you have a copy of my Oracle Discoverer 10g Handbook? If so, you will find a full description of cascading parameters in there.
If you or your users don't know how to do this you may want to consider taking some training as this is standard functionality within the Plus tool and you would expect report writers to know how to do this.
Best wishes
Michael

Removing characters from a String (concats, substrings, etc)
This has got me pretty stumped. I'm creating a class which takes in a string and then returns the string without vowels and without even numbers. Vowels and even characters are considered "invalid." As an example: Input: "hello 123" Output: "hll 13"
