Question

Does anyone know if there is any way I can remove the string “Today is ” that is displayed at the bottom of the MyFaces Tomahawk’s popup inputCalendar?

See the following screenshot:

I don’t want the string “Today is Fri, 8 Jul 2005” shown at all. Is this possible?

Thanks.

You have to set an popupTodayString attribute for your calendar:

<t:inputCalendar id="dob"  
    maxlength="10" 
    value="#{myBackingBean.person.dateOfBirth}"
    monthYearRowClass="monthYearRowClass" 
    weekRowClass="weekRowClass" 
    dayCellClass="dayCellClass" 
    currentDayCellClass="currentDayCellClass"
    popupTodayString="HERE_GOES_EMPTY_STRING" 
    popupWeekString="Wk" renderAsPopup="true"
    renderPopupButtonAsImage="true" 
    popupDateFormat="MM/dd/yyyy"
    alt="Calendar" title="Calendar">
 </t:inputCalendar>

Second way to achive hide text is to override css class. You need for example Firebug to find css rule for this box and then set display:none;

.someCssClass div
{
    display:none;
}
