[TYPO3-mvc] Fluid form with DateTIme as user input

[Hendrik Nadler]

Hi,

thanks a lot, but somehow this wont work for me (TYPO3 6.1 by the way).

The form field stays empty, if i dont do the constructor thingy (xyz= new DateTime()), otherwise everytime the default date is displayed and cant be changed, because (in your case) "blub.validUntil" - assigned to the view in the controller by:

public function indexAction(\Foo\Bar\Domain\Model\Blub $blub = null)
    {
        if ($blub === null) {
            $blub = $this->objectManager->get('\Foo\Bar\Domain\Model\Blub');
        }
        $this->view->assign('blub', $blub);

is always at the default value and has nothing(?!) to do with the form object. 

Hendrik

<label for="validUntil"><f:translate
key="tx_bla_domain_model_blub.valid_until" /> (Format: TT.MM.JJJJ)</label>
	<f:form.textfield property="validUntil"   
value="{blub.validUntil->f:format.date(format:'d.m.Y')}" class="tcal" />

should  work if changed to accept date time. I can only recommend adding a simple date picker like Tigra Calendar.

You should not need any magic in the model, you don't need to set it explicitly - there is a special part in the property mapper that handles datetime fields.

If that fails you,

http://forum.typo3.org/index.php?t=msg&th=196836&goto=685637&#msg_685637

looks promising.
