Question

I use jQuery timepicker that was extended to be able to pick not only the date but also the time. Adding a Timepicker to jQuery UI Datepicker. This is how I pick the data:

$('#test').live('click', function(){
        $('body').append('<div id="timePicker"></div>');
        var d = new Date();
        $('#timePicker').datetimepicker({
            minDate: new Date()
        });
});

From the examples the date is pasted into the input field. But I do not want to have an input field, I just have a button #test. The done button of the picker does only work for input fields. How can I fix that and how to I get the date without an input field?

Answer 1

You can hide the input field using CSS

<input type="text" style="display:none" id="dateTimeField" />

Hope that helps
