rich:calendar and refresh default value

[faffinito]

Hi all,

I have a rich calendar in a modal panel. When I use the popup calendar the first time, the default values (month and year) are the current ones. Let's suppose I select a date, for example June 30, 1977. I insert this date in my panel and I go on. When I return to the calendar to insert a new date, I find as default value June 1977. How can I cancel the memory of the last inserted date? Or, alternatively, how can I set a default value for every time I open the calendar?

this is my code:

<a:region>

<rich:calendar id="onsetDatetimeUpdated"

required="true"

value="#{diseaseAction.bufferDisease.onsetDate}"

datePattern="dd/MM/yyyy"

enableManualInput="true"

rendered="#{!diseaseAction.updateMode.equals('delete')}">

<a:support event="onblur" reRender="onsetDatetimeUpdated" ajaxSingle="true" />

</rich:calendar>

</a:region>

Thanks in advance

Fabio

you could either reRender it with initial value or call js api function and set the date.

Thanks!

The unresolved issue is WHERE to put the reRender instruction. Should I put it on the link that opens the modal panel? Or elsewhere?

[ilya_shaikovsky]

If you choosing ajax and already using a link to show modal panel - you should point calendar to be reRendered from this link before panel wil be shown at oncomplete.

I followed your suggestion, but that didn't worked.

I insert some of my code to clarify, hoping it helps!

Thank you!

This is where the modal panel is called.

and this is the calendar inside my modal panel:

Maybe I have some problem with this editor too...

this is the place where the panel is linked:

<a4j:commandLink id="addDiseaselink" ajaxSingle="true" value="#{currentVisit.diseases.size()>0 ? 'Aggiungi Diagnosi' : 'Diagnosi'}"

                                   reRender="diseasePanel, onsetDatetimeUpdated" action="#{diseaseAction.initDisease}"

                                   oncomplete="#{rich:component('updateDisease')}.show()"

                                   rendered="#{identity.hasRole('2') and !currentVisit.visitStatus.tag.equals('locked')}"

                                   style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; margin-left: 30px">

          <f:setPropertyActionListener value="add" target="#{diseaseAction.updateMode}" />

</a4j:commandLink>

and this is the modal panel:

<s:decorate id="onsetDatetimeField"

                    template="../layout/edit.xhtml"

                    styleClass="visit-field">

                    <ui:define name="label">Data insorgenza </ui:define>

                    <h:outputText  value="#{diseaseAction.bufferDisease.onsetDate}"

                                             rendered="#{diseaseAction.updateMode.equals('delete') or diseaseAction.updateMode.equals('read')}"

                                             style="font-weight:bold;font-size:12px" datePattern="dd/MM/yyyy"/>

                     <a:region>

                         <rich:calendar id="onsetDatetimeUpdated"

                                                  required="true"

                                                  value="#{diseaseAction.bufferDisease.onsetDate}"

                                                  datePattern="dd/MM/yyyy"

                                                  enableManualInput="true"

                                                  rendered="#{not (diseaseAction.updateMode.equals('delete') or                                                                            diseaseAction.updateMode.equals('read'))}">

                              <a:support event="onblur" reRender="onsetDatetimeUpdated" ajaxSingle="true" />

                         </rich:calendar>

                    </a:region>

</s:decorate>

I would think that it could be a problem related to the instance, more than to a refreshing of the calendar. Probably the calendar redisplay the value contained in the #{diseaseAction.bufferDisease.onsetDate} stored in the current instance. Is that possible?

Thanks again.

[ilya_shaikovsky]

sure if the #{diseaseAction.bufferDisease.onsetDate} contains some date - it will be set as current.

Same behavior even if such value is null. I think that I've got the answer here :
