eeVlaDatePickerPlugin
=====================

Description
-----------

This plugins eases the use of the rich
[Javascript Vista-Like Ajax (Vla) Date Picker widget](http://dev.base86.com/scripts/vista-like_ajax_calendar_version_2.html)
in Symfony.

This plugin uses the
[clientside-only version of the widget](http://dev.base86.com/solo/46/client-side_only_extension_for_vlacalendar_v21.html).
That means that the contents of the widget are handled by Javascript
on the client and not by PHP or whatever.

Installation
------------

    $ symfony plugin:install eeVlaDatePickerPlugin
    $ symfony cache:clear

Usage
-----

Example:

    $this->widgetSchema['date'] = new eeWidgetFormDateVlaDatePicker();

You can use a standard sfValidatorDate to specify the string format:

    $this->validatorSchema['date']->setOption(
        'date_format',
        '@(?P<day>\d{1,2}).(?P<month>\d{1,2}).(?P<year>\d{4})@'
    );

i18n
----

Internalisation is possible but not supported by original widget (please tell me
if I am wrong).

French translation is already done, and you can use it as an example if you want
to add another language.
