I just learned how to add datepicker in form.


echo $form->labelEx($model,'datecolumn name');

The Above line display label for date column.


$this->widget('zii.widgets.jui.CJuiDatePicker',array(

				'name'=>'Modelname[datecolumn name]',

				'id'=>'Modelname_datecolumn name',

			    'value'=>Yii::app()->dateFormatter->format("d-M-y",strtotime($model->datecolumn_name)),

				'options'=>array(

    				'showAnim'=>'fold',

				),

				'htmlOptions'=>array(

    				'style'=>'height:20px;'

				),

			));

from the above lines,

name and id attributes are represent html attributes [name,id] of the input.

value option displays saved date during edit / update operation.

[
‘attribute’ => ‘post_date’,
‘value’ => ‘post_date’,
‘format’ => ‘raw’,
‘filter’ => DatePicker::widget([
‘model’ => $searchModel,
‘attribute’ => ‘post_date’,
‘options’ => [
‘id’ => ‘datepickerT’
],
‘clientOptions’ => [
‘autoclose’ => true,
‘format’ => ‘yyyy-mm-dd’,
]
]),
], correct the format if any one needs it
