jqxdatetimeinput unable to select date before 1970

[mohamedazherParticipant]

Hi,

You can check this in the demo here https://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxdatetimeinput/index.htm#demos/jqxdatetimeinput/defaultfunctionality.htm

Why is it that we cannot use the editor to select any date before 1970-1-1, is there a property to change this? The min property i see is set to 1900 still i am not able to select a date before 1970.

We recently updated from version 4.3 to 6.0.6 and this issue is present here. It used to work fine in 4.3

Hi,

I have downloaded the newest version (6.1.0) because of this. It’s the same. Dates before 1970 wouldn’t be displayed in the field! Because I have an application which needs birthdates of users – and a lot of them are older than 48 and the birthdates are before 1970 – I need this immediatly.

First time this error is posted on Sept, 25th!

Best regards,
Roland

Hi Martin,

Sorry if I ask you again but my english is in this case not good enough:

Does your answer mean the error is still there or is it solved?

If I create an example in jsfiddle I have the same result: After 01.01.1970 all dates will be displayed in the jqxDateTimeInput. Before, the date will not be shown.

If it’s not be solved yet, when you think you do this? For a software which needs birthday dates, it is horrible!

regards,
Roland

Hello Roland,

The issue is not resolved yet.
Unfortunately, we can not engage with a deadline. It should be fixed in some of the next releases.

Hi Martin,

But you know: Every developer which needs for his software personal datas including birthdates or other things with a date before 1970, he can’t use your framework?

It’s a small, but very important thing!
