Input Validation For DatePicker

[Brian Roth]

I noticed that you can input "12:00 AM" into a datepicker without setting off an input validation error. If a data-role is specified as a "datepicker", shouldn't Kendo have some out of the box validation on time inputs?

 

Here is a Kendo demo that allows you to input time: http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/validator/custom-validation

 

Thanks!

Hello Brian,

When you enter a valid hour, the DatePicker will select the current date by setting the hours from the user's input. If you need to further limit the valid date inputs you can use custom validation as in the following example:

• http://dojo.telerik.com/UyOTI

Hope this helps.

I'll go ahead and use custom logic then.

However, I still do think the expectation should be:

+ DatePicker : only a date

+ TimePicker: only a time

+ DateTimePicker: both

Thanks,

Brian

Hello Brian,

If you think that the validation should be specific to each widget, you could create a feature request in our feedback portal and if it receives enough votes, our developers could consider such implementation in future releases:
