Using jQuery Date picker with a custom trigger button

Question

如何通过用户定义的按钮打开 jQuery Datepicker？

Answer 1

There's built-in support for this , having an icon or button to right right of the textbox, like this:

$("#datepicker").datepicker({
  showOn: 'button',
  buttonImage: 'images/calendar.gif',
  buttonImageOnly: true
});

If you want to show it from another button, or really any event, call the show method , like this:

$("#myButton").click(function() {
  $("#datepicker").datepicker("show");
});

You can try it here

Answer 3

This is HTML for date picker icon

onclick="show_date_picker('#datepicker_id');  on you icon element

This is function for open & close datepicker on icon click

function show_date_picker(source_datepicker){
    if($(source_datepicker).datepicker("widget").is(":visible")){
        $(source_datepicker).datepicker("hide");
    }else{ 
        $(source_datepicker).datepicker("show"); 
    }
}

Answer 4

I have solved using focus.

$("#datepicker").datepicker();

$("#myButton").click(function() {
 $("#datepicker").focus();
});

Answer 5

 $("#checkin").datepicker({ dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy', minDate: '0', changeMonth: true, numberOfMonths: 1 });

 .datedivmng{ float: left;position: relative; } .datedivmng .datepicker{ position: relative;width: 87%!important; cursor: pointer; } .datedivmng:after { /* symbol for "opening" panels */ font-family: 'FontAwesome'; content: "\\f073"; color: #329ac4; font-size: 16px; text-shadow: none; position: absolute; vertical-align: middle; pointer-events: none; float: right; top: 2px; right: 7px; }

 <div class="datedivmng"> <input type="text" id="checkin" name="checkin" value="" /></div>

Answer 6

The question is not clear if you want an additional trigger or an additional trigger. If you want to have an additional trigger. The accepted answer did not work for me perhaps its an outdated version. The below code worked for me as a general trigger

    $('#datepicker').jqxDateTimeInput('open');
