In Struts 2, the dojo ajax tag “<sx:datetimepicker>” will render a text box and append a calender icon behind, click on the calender icon will prompt a date time picker component.
To create a date time pick component, just ensure :
1. Download the struts2-dojo-plugin.jar library.
2. Include the “struts-dojo-tags” tag and output its header.
开始时把struts2-dojo-plugin.jar包导入到项目WEB-INF/libx下
<%@ taglib prefix="sx" uri="/struts-dojo-tags" %>
<html>
<head>
<sx:head />
</head>
For example,
<%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="sx" uri="/struts-dojo-tags" %>
<html>
<head>
<sx:head />
</head>
<body>
<sx:datetimepicker name="date2" label="Format (dd-MMM-yyyy)"
displayFormat="dd-MMM-yyyy" value="%{'2010-01-01'}"/>
...
Resulting the following HTML, few dojo and JavaScript libraries to create a date time pick component.
