I have had some good success using ExtJs (extjs.com) in combination with our Spring MVC forms also using Spring Webflow 2.0.2.

You can lay out your form as a regular Spring MVC form with the date field you wish to use setup as a regular text field. Then ExtJs has some nice calls for their widgets to be applied to an existing element.

Here's a quick example:

This is my date input that lives in a spring managed form.

<form:input id="reportDate" path="runForDate" />

This is the javascript to attach the ext date field to my form element, which then provides a rich, robust, and even configurable date chooser that looks sweet too.

var setupForm = function() {
		var date = new Ext.form.DateField({
					width: 90,
	                allowBlank: false,
	                blankText: 'The report date is required',
	                applyTo: 'reportDate'
	                });
	};

Ext.onReady(setupForm);

The 'applyTo' attribute tells ExtJs to apply the new DateField object onto the element with the matching id, 'reportDate'.


Hope that helps

Thanks for your reply.

Can I use the extjs facilities commercialy?

Is there anyway to customize the Dojo Calender that comes with Spring webflow?


Do anybody know more abt the usage of Dojo Calender along with Spring webflow?

Or use the Spring JavaScript extension, it is part of the new webflow distribution but works perfectly without Webflow. It is quite easy to integrate.
