Editor datetime trigger change
Editor datetime trigger change

Hi Alan.
I saw the changelog of 1.6 that now selecting a date from the datepicker with the mouse triggers the onchange event for dependent. The problem I found is that I had other events listening on the input field but they never got triggered.
I have tried to add another listener to the editor-datetime-button but because you are using stopPropagation my listener never got called either, so I ended up adding the following simple fix:
I altered the following function as follows:
_writeOutput: function ( focus ) {
var date = this.s.d;
// Use moment if possible - otherwise it must be ISO8601 (or the
// constructor would have thrown an error)
var out = window.moment ?
window.moment.utc( date, undefined, this.c.momentLocale, this.c.momentStrict ).format( this.c.format ) :
date.getUTCFullYear() +'-'+
this._pad(date.getUTCMonth() + 1) +'-'+
this._pad(date.getUTCDate());
this.dom.input.val( out );
this.dom.input.trigger('change'); // Trigger a change event on the input!
if ( focus ) {
this.dom.input.focus();
}
}
Hope it helps.

Thanks for posting this. I'll take a look into including this into Editor in future.

Hi Alan, just found the same issue, could you please add the following line? It does the trick for me. Thanks!
this.dom.input.trigger('change');
@jukimv1986 - Editor should be triggering the
changeevent on thedatetimeinput already, as you can see in this example: http://live.datatables.net/bopugaba/1/edit .Regards,

@allan sorry but I meant when using the calendar as standalone (as in this thread https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/comment/85747/#Comment_85747) that line was the one missing for me to trigger the change event.
Ah I see - thanks for the clarification. I've noted this in our bug tracker to get it addressed for Editor 1.9.3, which I expect around the end of the month.
Regards,
Allan
