Inline Date Editing not Enabled

dpanscik

I have inline editing turned on. I can do an inline edit of all fields except for the date.

Is there something specific I must do to enable inline date editing?

Here is my code;

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "On Call";
    Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}

<h2>On Call</h2>

$('#onCall').on('click', 'tbody td:not(:first-child)'

The selector you are using for the click event on cells is explicitly excluding the first cell in each row. In this case that happens to be your date column.

Remove the :not(:first-child) part.
