owns()

Check if an element belongs to this control.
Please note - this property requires the DateTime extension for DataTables.

Description

This method takes a node as a parameter and returns true if it belongs to this control, false if not. It can be useful to know this information when creating a form that has multiple click event handlers and you might need to know if a click happens inside the date picker, or elsewhere in your form.

Type

owns(node)

Example

var dt = new DateTime(document.getElementById('example'));

if (dt.owns(document.getElementByClassName('dt-datetime-date'))) {
	console.log('It is owned');
}
