If you are rendering the selectDate via an ajax call (eg. using ajax4jsf) then you will need to do a few javascript hacks. If this is the case for you then add this bit of Javascript to your page (it's taken from the selectDate javascript that is called when a page is loaded normally | <script type="text/javascript"> | //<![CDATA[ | //This script block is needed to set Seam Date picker defaults as they don't otherwise get set by AJAX call - only needed on pages where date picker is rendered via AJAX | var CAL_DAYS_SHORT = 'Su,Mo,Tu,We,Th,Fr,Sa'; | var CAL_DAYS_MEDIUM = 'Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat'; | var CAL_DAYS_LONG = 'Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday'; | var CAL_MONTHS_MEDIUM = 'Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec'; | var CAL_MONTHS_LONG = 'January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December'; | var CAL_FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK = 0; | var CAL_DATE_FORMAT = 'dd/MM/yyyy'; | //]]> | </script> | Cheers, Damian.
