I wrote a wiki on CJuiDatePicker.

It illustrates how to use it for a text field in a form.

The first quarter of the article will be enough to get the general idea of the input widget extensions.

Thank you. so good example. Doesn’t it have any matter in usage with CHttp::form?

No problem, as far as I know.

A CJuiInputWidget has 2 pairs of properties:

  1. model and attribute, and

  2. name and value

Don’t mix them. They are mutually exclusive.

The former is for CActiveForm, in which you use it in place of a CActiveForm::textField($model, $attribute, $options).

The latter is for CForm, in which you use it in place of a CHtml::textField($name, $value, $options).
