client-side timepicker.set_selectedDate(date) - how to?

[Torben]

Hi,

I tried to set the selected Date on a timepicker for getting min_date to work.

The control updates the current time - but not the current Date. This way the correctly set minDate work.

Example:
selectedDate= Sat Sep 19 2009 19:17:00 GMT+0200
minDate=Wed Sep 16 2009 00:00:00 GMT+0200

Setting selectedDate toWed Sep 16 2009 10:00:00 GMT+0200 will change the selectedDate to:
Sat Sep 19 2009 10:00:00 GMT+0200 and not to th above value.

Do you have any ideas on what goes wrong?

My Code looks like this:

function js_fahrteingabe_zeitControl_setDate(controlId, dateIn){
    var tmpCtrlZeit = $find(controlId);
    var currentDateTime=tmpCtrlZeit.get_timeView().getTime();
    var actTime=dateToTimeString( currentDateTime );

    var newDateTime = datetimeStringToDate(dateToDateString(dateIn) + " " + actTime);
    tmpCtrlZeit.set_selectedDate(newDateTime);
    var date = tmpCtrlZeit.get_selectedDate();
    date.setDate(newDateTime);
    tmpCtrlZeit=null;

}

Hello Torben,

You are right that RadTimePicker does not apply the date (day, month, year) set through the set_selectedDate() method on the client. However if you set it on the server you will get the date correctly applied on the client side:

<script type="text/C#" runat="server">
            protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                RadTimePicker1.SelectedDate = DateTime.Today.AddDays(-10);
            }
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
            function pageLoad(sender, eventArgs)
            {
                var picker1 = $find("<%=RadTimePicker1.ClientID %>");
                alert("RadTimePicker1 selectedDate is: " + picker1.get_selectedDate());
            }
</script>
<telerik:RadTimePicker ID="RadTimePicker1" runat="server">
</telerik:RadTimePicker>

We are constantly updating our product and I will submit your report to our dev team for a review.
