Question

In a GWT application i’m trying to use this component:

http://keith-wood.name/datepick.html

In their page they explain that we need to use the following jquery function to use it:

$(function() {
$('#popupDatepicker').datepick();
});

<input type="text" id="popupDatepicker">

Due to requirements aplication i can´t use it like described so i use the onClick event like this:

<input type="text" id="popupDatepicker" 
       onClick="$('#popupDatepicker').datepick();">

In this way, the component is loaded but only on the second click (my first click doesn’t do anying)

Has anyone had this problem?

Thanks a lot.

You should be able to use any selector string to initialize date picker elements on the page. Thus, you could give your <input> elements a class:

 <input class='datepick' name='whatever'>

and then initialize all of them with:

 $(function() {
   $('.datepick').datepick();
 });
