Datecolumn

[khink]

A branch with a DateColumn.

I first started using https://github.com/collective/Products.DataGridField/blob/lepri-datetime-column/Products/DataGridField/ but couldn't get that to work. (That branch requires collective.js.jqueryui, which is a big overhead and messed up my JS setup. I was too lazy to figure it out.) I did use some of the code, though.

This branch uses only plone.app.jquerytools (1.2 or higher), and was tested in a Plone 4.0 instance.

Thanks for working on this! A few remarks.

Can you add a date column to one of the example types in the examples directory? Then it gets easier to test manually (import the "DataGridField (Example DGF content types)" profile in portal_setup) and it gets at least a bit of automatic testing. Well, I have now done that myself. :-) Feel free to change.

Adding tests specifically for this column type would be cool, but don't lose sleep on it. The test setup is a bit ancient...

Here is a screenshot to clarify a few following comments:

The current date gets printed as a help text, which seems unneeded.

When I select a date, save it, edit it again, and click on the date, the popup should show the stored date instead of today.

An existing date column is too wide: it falls over the + sign. This is in Firefox.

This is really cool, I was not aware of the jQuery tools feature about Date picker! I will remove DateColum from collective.datagridcolumns (it's based on jQueryUI and, as you say, is a pain)!
