date field not appearing correctly in firefox

nsak

In an application I' m setting up I have a problem with a date field. In Chrome it shows ok, in Firefox/ IE not.

See http://eum.buildingwarden.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=18156&Itemid=638&lang=en

Hi Nikos,

Are you using the date type option ( http://editor.datatables.net/reference/field/date )? If so, its behaviour will depend upon two things:

1. If you have jQuery UI's DatePicker library loaded
2. If the browser implements the HTML5 date picker.

If jQuery UI is available on the page, that will be used in all browsers. Otherwise the HTML5 date type will be used, but only Chrome supports that currently (possibly IE now as well from what you say). Mobile browsers have better support for it, but desktop Firefox is still waiting for that feature...

Thanks Allan, I guess some issue with the UI; on my localhost it shows ok; we will fix it

best, Nikos
