RE: Using a JSCalendar as a Date Picker [Code Snippet]

As a follow-up, you have to do a little more work if your text field
and image objects are not visible on screen when window.application.post
fires (for example, if the widgets are on a non-active page of a
QxBarView).

To handle this, add an event listener to imgCal so that when it first
appears, you can set up the calendar, like this:

window.application.main = function()
{
   // rest of init code deleted...

  imgCal.addEventListener("appear", on_imgCal_appear);

   // rest of init code deleted...
}

// use a variable to ensure that you only initialize the
// calendar once
var calendar_init = false;
function on_imgCal_appear (e)
{
    if (calendar_init)
    {
        return;
    }

    Calendar.setup({
            inputField    : "f_date_b",  // id of the input field
            ifFormat    : "%m/%d/%Y %I:%M %p",    // format of the input
field
            showsTime    : true,   // will display a time selector
            button    : "f_trigger_b",  // trigger for the calendar
(button ID)
            singleClick    : false,   // double-click mode
            step    : 1   // show all years in drop-down boxes (instead
of every other year as default)
    });

    calendar_init = true;
}
