CJuiDatePicker validation messages isn't working - ajax

Question

Hi.
I have a problem with form-validation in Yii framework.
Here is my VIEW code:
<?php
$form = $this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(
'id' => 'search-form',
'enableAjaxValidation' => true,
'enableClientValidation' => true,
'focus' => array($model, 'ccc'),
'clientOptions' => array(
'validateOnSubmit' => true,
),
));
?>
<?php
echo $form->errorSummary($model);
?>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model, 'input'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model, 'input', array('class' => 'input-medium', 'maxlength' => 11,)); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model, 'input'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model, 'date'); ?>
<?php
$this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiDatePicker', array(
'attribute' => 'date',
'name' => 'date',
'model' => $model,
'language' => 'ru',
'options' => array(
'dateFormat' => 'dd/mm/y',
'showAnim' => 'slideDown',
'changeMonth' => true,
'changeYear' => true,
'showOn' => 'button',
'constrainInput' => 'true',
),
'htmlOptions' => array(
'style' => 'height:15px; width:6em'
),
));
?>
<?php echo $form->error($model, 'date'); ?>
</div>
<?php $this->endWidget(); ?>
Nothing special. But validation messages working only for textField (Ajax requests are sending only with onChange textField).
How to enable CJuiDatePicker validation messages?

Answer 1

You just have to give the right id to your CJuidatepicker object, use CHtml::getIdByName to create the id value, try to the name of the html element there, it must be something like
'id' => CHtml::getIdByName(get_class($model) . '[' . $attribute . ']')
it would become something like this:
$this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiDatePicker', array(
'id' => CHtml::getIdByName(get_class($model) . '[date]'),
'attribute' => 'date',
'name' => 'date',
'model' => $model,
'language' => 'ru',
'options' => array(
'dateFormat' => 'dd/mm/y',
'showAnim' => 'slideDown',
'changeMonth' => true,
'changeYear' => true,
'showOn' => 'button',
'constrainInput' => 'true',
),
'htmlOptions' => array(
'style' => 'height:15px; width:6em'
),
));

wonde's answer "you should include a value" didn't work for me...
This is what worked:
Yii CActiveForm date validation
views/site/login.php originally had:
$form=$this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(
'id'=>'login-form',
'enableClientValidation'=>true,
'clientOptions'=>array(
'validateOnSubmit'=>true,
),
Things worked when this was changed to:
$form=$this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(
'id'=>'login-form',
'enableAjaxValidation' => true,
'clientOptions' => array(
'validateOnSubmit' => true,
'validateOnChange' => true,
),

This is what i did and it works, i think you should include a value
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'reportDate'); ?>
<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiDatePicker',
array( 'model'=>$model,
'attribute'=>'reportDate',
**'value'=>$model->reportDate,**
'options'=>array(
'showButtonPanel'=>true,
'changeYear'=>true,
'changeMonth'=>true,
'autoSize'=>true,
'dateFormat'=>'yy-mm-dd',
'defaultDate'=>$model->reportDate,
),
));
?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'reportDate'); ?>

Answer 4

this problem can be shoved simply by adding $form->error($model,'end_date') after CJuiDatePicker.
$this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiDatePicker', array(
'id' => CHtml::getIdByName(get_class($model) . '[date]'),
'attribute' => 'date',
'name' => 'date',
'model' => $model,
'language' => 'ru',
'options' => array(
'dateFormat' => 'dd/mm/y',
'showAnim' => 'slideDown',
'changeMonth' => true,
'changeYear' => true,
'showOn' => 'button',
'constrainInput' => 'true',
),
'htmlOptions' => array(
'style' => 'height:15px; width:6em'
),
));
echo $form->error($model,'dateTo');// added to enaple clint validation
