Description

Renders a calendar component allowing to choose a date from a month view. Change the month by navigating in the header bar. The calendar component is automatically rendered using the week-names, the month-names and the start of the week of the current locale, so localisation support is given (for an example, see {calendar.jsp} in myfaces examples and change the current locale under options).

Calendar can be rendered as a pop-up, displaying week numbers in addition to the month view described above.

Notes and Known issues

Some known issues like incompatibility to other frameworks/component libs

When the component is used within a div which has the position set absolute, the popup calendar will be displayed way off from the button. No known solution at the moment.

Example:

<div style="position: absolute; top: 150.0em; left: 27.0em; right: 35px; ">
  <t:inputCalendar renderPopupButtonAsImage="true" renderAsPopup="true">
  </t:inputCalendar>							
</div>
