UI for date picker #55

Closed adamamyl closed 10 years ago

adamamyl commented 10 years ago

We've added a date picker.

It's UI isn't the easiest, and there's not a display (apart from in the address bar/URI) of what the filter range is.

Initial ideas for improvement:

[x] Add the date range as text, once the filter's applied, somewhere above/below the slider, with an obvious marker (like with de-selecting a tag).
[x] Add a date picker gizmo calendar thing, like with popular websites for booking hotels, trains, holidays -- that sort of thing. Only concern here, is going back in time, if needed. It's good that URI hacking works, for people wanting to specify that way, too.

How does this look? Dragging the slider updates the text field. And they both get calendar drop downs.

Looks good. Happy to push to staging.

nigelbabu commented 10 years ago

Pushed to staging. Please comment.

Using the date picker (particularly going back in the past) doesn't seem to always work for me. I've given it a few goes, but selecting a date, doesn't seem to work.

Typing the range in does work, though.

Not sure how to debug that one.

How much past are you going to? The first date on the slider is the first date on the site. Can you give me precise instructions to reproduce?

adamamyl commented 10 years ago

There seems to be an issue with the picker in Chrome, but not Firefox.

@nigelbabu I've just pushed a fix for the date picker issue... can we push it to staging for @adamamyl to test?

amercader commented 10 years ago

I've updated staging to the latest code
