Here’s the literal HTML markup I have:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Register</title>
<link href="/Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="/Scripts/jquery-1.5.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Register</h2>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.11.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link rel="Stylesheet" href="../../Content/jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom.css" />
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.date-selector').datepicker();
}
</script>
<form action="/account/register" method="post"> <fieldset>
<legend>UserModel</legend>
<div class="editor-label">
<label for="DateOfBirth">Fecha de Nacimiento</label>
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
<input class="date-selector" data-val="true" data-val-required="Debe escribir su fecha de nacimiento" id="DateOfBirth" name="DateOfBirth" type="text" value="1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM" />;
<span class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="DateOfBirth" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
</div>
Notice that the class date-selector is properly set, and also the javascript is properly hooking the event up. (I think).
How can I debug what’s going wrong? Why doesn’t the datepicker control pop up when I click on the date of birth input textbox?
You’re missing a closing
);at the end of your$(document).ready()handler:For future reference, a good tool for checking your JavaScript before even running it is JSLint.
