Calendar PHP Class Overview

The Kendo UI Calendar for PHP is a server-side wrapper for the Kendo UI Calendar widget.

Getting Started

Configuration

Below are listed the steps for you to follow when configuring the Kendo UI Calendar for PHP.

Step 1 Make sure you followed all the steps from the introductory article on Telerik UI for PHP—include the autoloader, JavaScript, and CSS files.

Step 2 Create a Calendar, configure its min, max, and value options.

<?php
$calendar = new \Kendo\UI\Calendar('calendar');
$calendar->min(new DateTime('1900-01-01'))
         ->max(new DateTime('2099-12-31'))
         ->value(new DateTime('today', new DateTimeZone('UTC')));
?>

Event Handling

You can subscribe to all Calendar events.

Specify Function Names

The example below demonstrates how to subscribe for events by specifying a JavaScript function name.

<?php
$calendar = new \Kendo\UI\Calendar('calendar');

// The 'calendar_change' JavaScript function will handle the 'change' event of the calendar
$calendar->change('calendar_change');

echo $calendar->render();
?>
<script>
function calendar_change() {
    // Handle the change event
}
</script>

Provide Inline Code

The example below demonstrates how to subscribe to events by providing inline JavaScript code.

<?php
$calendar = new \Kendo\UI\Calendar('calendar');

// Provide inline JavaScript code that will handle the 'change' event of the calendar
$calendar->change('function() { /* Handle the change event */ }');

echo $calendar->render();
?>

Reference

Client-Side Instances

You are able to reference an existing Calendar instance via the jQuery.data(). Once a reference is established, use the Calendar API to control its behavior.

<?php
$calendar = new \Kendo\UI\Calendar('calendar');
echo $calendar->render();
?>
<script>
$(function() {
    // The constructor parameter is used as the 'id' HTML attribute of the calendar
    var calendar = $("#calendar").data("kendoCalendar")
});
</script>
