Ability to type in values #50

Closed sgentile closed 6 years ago

sgentile commented 9 years ago

Since we can't easily change year - the native browser for chrome lets you type in a value (ie. for a birthdate).

Is it possible with the polyfill to allow someone to type in the value ? I tried on Safari desktop and it didn't allow this.

@sgentile yeah, I was thinking about this feature in the past. Since handling of text selection is quite tricky (and buggy) from browser to browser, I'd rather implement https://github.com/chemerisuk/better-dateinput-polyfill/issues/8 instead of allowing a user manual input.

Please don't ask me about estimates - not sure when I'll be back to Open Source... Quite busy this year with other stuff ;)

I like how Chrome solves the problem in their implementation:

May be we could schedule this feature for 2.1.

No go because of approach used in version 3 to customise presented value
