Most modern browsers support the new `<input type="date">`, which allows inputting date using a browser-native date picker with built-in validation. This form widget utilizes this feature by setting the input type to "date" and by changing the value formatting as it should be in the ISO format. See more about `<input type="date">`: <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/date>
Alternative version of newform code for handling credit cards. Unlike the other two credit-card snippets (http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/764/ and http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/830/), this uses two drop-down boxes instead of text fields for the expiration date, which is a bit friendlier. It doesn't do as much checking as snippet #764 since we rely on the payment gateway for doing that. We only accept Mastercard, Visa, and American Express, so the validation code checks for that.
As users would login to their accounts to update their CC info, the expiration date always threw them off. The default format for displaying a datetime.date object is >YYYY-MM-DD Obviously the expiration date on your credit card uses the MM/YY format. I finally got around to creating a custom field/widget to handle this particular piece of data. Use like so... class CustomerForm(forms.ModelForm): cc_exp = DateFieldCCEXP() class Meta: model = Customer
Simple drop-down date field for use. You can specify date range by initiating new DateDropdownWidget. Welcome comments!
Usage: forms.DateField(input_formats=['%d.%m.%Y'], widget=DateTextInput())
