Hi,

I am not sure if you already got a response from the list, but I did not see one on the list...

Hi All -

I am using a wohyperlink to open a new browser window that displays a
calendar (one month only). I would like the user to select a date
(wohyperlink) from the calendar and return the selected date to referring
page.



Seems simple, but I am a newbie also and not sure how to advise how to direct the selected date from another component to a specific field on a referring page (WOComponent). I looked over the training materials form Apple and searched the net without that much insight. Are you using trying to use javascript?


What if you had a lot of dates on a WOComponent and wanted to write a generic Calendar date picker that would return a date to specific associated fields on the referring page? It seems like a lot of webpages out there have this capability (like airline ticket ordering sites). They do not seem to refresh the page after clicking on a calendar date "popup". If you have received a solution from the community, please post -- it would be some nice conceptual help to a fellow newbie who will have to use this in the near future as well.

I can see many applications for this use in designing WO apps.

Currently I set a String variable in the session that collects the selected
date.


How do I get the referring page to display the selected date in a
wotextfield and close the calendar window?

Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.



Thanks,

Kev
