Abstract element selector #34

Open cazzer opened 10 years ago

cazzer commented 10 years ago

I am working on an application that dynamically generates forms and would like to pass the DOM node into the constructor instead of an element ID, or perhaps even an class name.

I created this enhancement request thinking it would be simple, but after digging through the source I noticed it is closely couple with the ID string and the effort required might be a bit too high. That said, you may get a higher adoption rate for this component if you abstract the entire constructor a bit more:

datePickerController.create({
  el: "#id", // or ".class" or variable containing DOM node,
  format: "%d/%m/%Y"
});

+1 for this issue. We would like to generate the date picker with a standard class such as .js-datepick so that we can have lots of dates (sometimes hundreds) on the same page without having to generate many new date controllers.
