Name

<fb:editor-date/>

Synopsis

<fb:editor-date label="..."/>

Renders a set of <select/> tags that provide a day drop-down menu and a month drop-down menu, which can be read as dates by the POSTed script.

FBML-Specific Attributes

Required

label=[string] default: none

The string of text to display in the left column of the <fb:editor/> form.

Optional

value=[int] default: Dec. 31 converted to UNIX timestamp

The UNIX timestamp to set the date drop-downs to when the page loads.

Example FBML

Please see the <fb:editor/> tag earlier in this chapter for an example.

Additional Information

  • When the form is posted, two attributes are submitted:

    date_month

    The month value, i.e., a number between 1 and 12.

    date_day

    The day value, i.e., a number between 1 and 31.

  • More than one <fb:editor-date/> submits only the last set in the form. Use <fb:editor-custom/> to use more than one date selector. (See the example HTML for the <fb:editor/> tag earlier in this chapter.)

  • External validation should be performed, as nothing checks for illegal dates (such as February 30).

  • When you are posting to the same page, the previous selection does not stay selected.
